My rear drums will not come off no matter what i try, is there a certain way to get the drum off to change the pads or could it be rusted that bad?

Hi pat.kay.,
Sometimes the drum is stuck and you need to spray some rust remover onto the ring at center of hub and bang with a hammer to loosen it.
sometimes you need to loosen the adjusters turn the adjuster up or down to loosen depenidn gon which side you are on.
There are 2 threaded holes that you can insert 2 pcs of M8 bolts to act as puller to get the drum off. Ensure the handbrake is released before doing so.
