I put new brakes and a wheel cylinder on my '83 GLX a year or so ago, and now it's time to replace the shoes and the left drum is welded on with rust.
With the adjustment backed all the way off, I have pounded it with a rubber hammer, carefully with a heavy jack, and have used a rust busting compound. It looks like it was welded on at the hub.
What's your favorite way of doing it?
