[Roadsters] rear brake drums

[Paul Souza]

Hi Everyone,
I want to Thank everyone that responded.  I checked my email a few times then
just went out and got it off. 

well .. I ended up snapping off the brake shoe adjuster end. Now I need to
purchase one.
I took the nuts and washers off the adjuster and the top of the drum started
to come off. I had to remove the shims in the back of the wheel cylinder and
take off the brakeline. The drum came out more but still would not come loose.
For some reason, the brake shoes were locked in the drum! I had worked it out
as mush as I could and used a screw driver to force one of the shoes out. Once
I got one of the shoes forced out the drum came off. I inspected the drum and
brake shoes but nothing appeared wrong. GO FIGURE ! I plan to clean it
throughly and inspect again. This happened all because I bleed the brakes.

Next steps, I plan to purchase new adjusters and wheel cylinders. Then
re-assemble when I get time.

Everyone..Thanks for all the help.
