I am new here and want to thank your for a great site.</P>


My wife drives a 99 Toyota 4 Runner (2wd) and I bought the front brake pads and rear brake shoes to do a brake job last weekend. Got the fronts done - no problem. I could not get the rear drums off to do the backs. Are there any special tricks to getting the rear drums off?</P>


This is the first brake job that this truck has had.</P>


Thanks</P>

Makre sure the emergency brake is off. After that. Try heating them up a bit before doing it. Probably have some dust build up that is making it difficult.
