To remove the rear brake drum on a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am, first ensure the vehicle is safely lifted and secured on jack stands. Remove the wheel and tire, then locate the drum's retaining screws, if present, and remove them. Use a brake drum puller if necessary to avoid damaging the drum, then gently pull the drum off the wheel hub. If the drum is stuck, you may need to adjust the brake shoes inward by accessing the adjuster through the inspection hole on the backing plate.
