well if you give it a few hits and it doesnt losen check to make sure you have the e brake down lol and if that still dont do it the drum could have a lip on it and the shoes are not abel to go over the lip you are just goin gto have to put some C&B(**** and *****) into it

lol we try our best to simplify our words of wisdom such as..

hammer
hit2 times
not loose
keep going
still not loose
you broke it.

just a couple of our favorites

release e-brake. stick 2 8mm bolts in the 2 holes specificially provided for drum removal. Crank in bolts, drum comes off.
