I've had several CJ's, and oohh those were the good ole days. To remove the wheel drum, start on the back sibe of the wheel with a brake tool. there, a rubber sill located near the bottom of the wheel, this will pop out and reveal a cylinder with gear teeth on one end. Useing a brake tool or large flat head screw driver turn counter clockwise,(I think) releaseing the preasure off the brake drums. You should be able to tell if you are going the wrong way,THINGS GET TIGHT. After enough pressure is removed the drum will come off. (Well maybe a bump with a rupper mallet helps) Hope this helps ShrewdLaruge

No hammering is needed at all.
