Hi there,

If they are just stuck on the axle flange, give then a belt with a hammer, (wear goggles if you do this)this will shock it loose, and sometimes there is a deep lip on the in side of older drums, so you may have to back off the brake adjuster to decrease the shoe contact so the drum will slide off. This video will help
