remove the wheel,hub cap(in center) with a flathead,raise the stake and remove the spindle nut,screw two 8x1.25 mm bolts into the drum to push it away from the hub,turn each bolts 2 turns at a time to prevent cocking the drum excessively,remove the drum and hub bearings unit from the spindle.next question?

theres more to it than that, get a shop manual like the one from Chilton's, thatll help a lot, drums are more complicated than discs.

ok, here is the rest.. remove the tension pins by pushin each retainer spring and turnin the pins,,remove the lower return spring and remove the shoe assembly over the hub,, remove the upper return spring and disassemble the brake shoes,disconnect the parking brake lever and remove the shoes..remove the U clip.wave washer and pivot pin and seperate the parkin brake lever from the shoe and thats it!!!!!
