Remove the wheels then the drums should just slide off. If they are rusted on, WD40 and a hammer should do it. If the shoes have scored the drums, you have to retract the shoes first. If you can't do that you can pry the drums off and ruin the springs and fittings. You have to replace them and know how they go if you do that.
TAke the wheel off first then the drum. Sometimes it is rusted on and WD40 and sometimes heat is required to get it off. If the shoes have scored the drums. you need to back off on the adjustment of the shoes to remove the drums.
On most drum brakes, there is a rubber plug located on the back of each drum. This keeps debri from getting into them. If you take the plugs out and insert a small flat head screw driver, you should feel on object in there. It is a star nut that controls the tension of the shoe pads. You need to release the tension by rotating the star nut in one direction (can't remember which way it is, sorry). If you reach a point where it stops and the drums still don't come off, you've gone the wrong way. To be sure, you can take a rubber mallet on gently bang on them to loosen them if they are rusted. After you do your work, reverse the turns to tighten the shoes back up but not too tight to where the drums don't turn. Don't forget to put the plugs back in or else you could get a bunch of debris in between the drums and the shoes.
Try shocking the drum loose by giving it a few blows with a heavy hammer at different spots. You may have to back off on the self-adjuster screw which is located in the back near the bottom inside the drum, behind the oval slot with the rubber plug in it.(plug could be missing). Remove the plug and access the screw through the slot.
Remove rear wheels and properly support vehicle.
Pull drums off (you may need to hit them with a small sledge hammer a few times to free up drum in order to remove).
Remove brake parts and shoes.
Do one side at a time so you can refer to other side during re-assembly.
Replace shoes and brake parts if they are worn/broken.
Ensure drum diameter is within spec if you plan on re-using.
Have drums resurfaced (or use sand paper on it if you are on a tight budget).
Use brake cleaner and a clean rag to clean mating surfaces of drums and shoes.
Install drums.
Adjust brakes.
Install wheels and your finished.
There may be one or two flat head phillips bolts holding it on. If not, you can use two longer bolts in the holes to force the drum off. As the bolts are screwed in they push against the axle and push the drum off. The shoes may have worn the drum down so that there is a lip on the outside edge that the shoes are catching on.
Push.
If this doesn't work; turn the adjuster wheel in a bit and then push.
been through this many times... my mother has one. you have to remove the cap in the center of the drum and remove the bearings. keep them clean. and re-grease when you put them back in.
Usually it's rusted in place. Put a small block of wood behind the edge of the drum and tap with a hammer, try this all around the drum till it pops off.
The type of fluid required is written on the dipstick.
