2002 brake drums

[Doc Blazer]

I just did the front brakes on my daughters 2002 sunfire. I also need to do the rear. Last time I tried to get the brake drums off I gave up. Can anyone tell me how to remove them, or do I just need a bigger hammer?

You just trying to get the bowl part off to expose the pads? Use a rubber mallet. Bang on it a bit, pull some, bang some more, pull some, bang more.. eventually it will come off.
