can't get rear drum off
son has 2008 , 2whl drive silverado that I can't get one drum off. usually I can hit with a hammer and the vibration will loosen the drum up but this one I have pounded on for 10 minutes and it will not move. are the two holes tapped in the drum for a puller? any suggestions or tips? thanks

its just a little half ton shortbed, its not the brake shoes or the emergency holding them on, they have never been off and the rust is holding them on and like I said I can usually hammer on the outside of the drum and the vibration will loosen them up. I have never used a puller on them and don't know if the two holes tapped into the face of the drum are for a puller? I am looking for some suggestions on what people have used to get them off. thanks

Bit of some Aero Kroil or something along them lines, or a lil bit of heat to the face of the drum and pop with a hammer. You prolly know this, but obviously make sure the keepers are off the studs. The two holes should be for a puller, if they are tapped. Worth a try anyway. good luck to ya
