Post photos. It's been so long since I've dicked with the semi-permanently attached drums that I'd have to research the service procedure. Mostly, we just reconditioned the drums while still attached to the hubs, therefore the drums and hubs were never separated.

It would probably be worth your time to see what the parts stores are selling for front drums. Maybe the drums come with the hub assembly. Maybe not.

I think it's an EXCELLENT idea to take the vehicle to a shop. Have them remove the rear drums for you, too.

Even if you perform the brake job, having the shop remove the drums will make the rest go easier.
