There is an adjuster on the rear of the backing plate - it takes a square
wrench (or a 12-point socket).  If they are not seized up, see if you can
gently work them out.

Hi folks,

I got the car jacked up and the back wheels off.

Now I'm looking at the back brakes.

The driver's side drum is locked up; the passenger side I can rotate.

I can't get either drum off, despite banging on them with a rubber mallet.

(I've taken out the 2 flat screws)

Any ideas?

Cheers
