Go to parts store and purchase replacement brakes. Drive home. Use jack to elevate the tire off of the ground that needs changed brakes. Loosen lug nuts. Take off wheel. Take off Drum. Take off crazy twisty springs (remember how they came off, they go on the same way). Youll find a small tubuler piece of metal with a gear in the middle and both sides are notched to fit into the brake shoes. Thake it and twist it down to where it gets smallest. put the brakes back togather ( I know those springs are tough without the right tool right?) put drum back on. Put wheel back on. Take core back to parts store to receive core refund.
You may want to check the brake shoes before buying new ones. I am asuming that the drum brakes are for the rear wheel correct. Rear brakes do so little that they do not wear easily and rarely need replaceing. You will probably replace your front brakes 8 or 9 times before noticeing any wear on the rear brakes.

sound like you have "grabbing" brakes to me. i would check them for contamination and if they are then you will need new brakes and to replace all rubber components, and if your brakes are not contaminted i would start checking wheel bearings, warped rotor or drum, and the balance of your tires. i would check your rotor or drum first, that is most likely the cause
