Thanks for the replies. Sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but I don't quite understand taking the drum off in pieces with a hammer?
there is the easy way, buy a new drum, and take the old one off with a hammer in pieces
Just for a little more detail, the suspension is completely stock and I adjusted the stars to pull the shoes in as far as possible. The drum spins freely once I adjusted the star, so I don't think that that's my issue and I didn't have a hard time getting that passenger side off. I'm thinking that maybe I could try to heat up the drum with a propane torch? If that doesn't work, I'll probably take it to a shop.
