Unless you are a keen home mechanic you better off taking this to a Good Mechanic as it's a time consuming, fiddly job. **Note* Make sure your front wheels have blocks in place to stop it rolling and Sometimes brute force is the only way to get the drum off.* With the vehicle safely raised off the ground, does the wheel spin freely with the park brake off? Yes? The drum should just pull off. You might have to tap the drum between the wheel studs/hole with a hammer to loosen any rust holding it on or use a 'drum puller' tool. Not spinning? There is a star adjuster inside the drum you can 'back off' to move the brake shoes out of the way. That is a slow fiddly job where you have to turn the adjuster one notch at a time with a flat blade screwdriver. This is done through an access hole on the back of the drum or one of the bolt holes on the front of the drum.
