Okay after lots of not so gentle persuasion I was able to get both rear break drums off. The LR fought me tooth and nail, I knew it would be a issue when the tire refused to spin when me and my grandpa loaded it onto my trailer. This was further reinforced when I had to use my truck to pull it off and push it into my garage. I used the "heat" wrench to soften the drum up as well as remove the bolts from the wheel cylinders. I then drilled out the back of the brake shoe retaining pins. After all this I was finally able to get the drum off, as you can see in the pictures the cause of my issue was a improperly worn shoe and drum causing them to grab each other even though they wheel cylinders where not engaged.
I plan on taking a hard look at the wheel cylinders tomorrow and try to determine if they need to be rebuilt or replaced, once I figure that out ill start looking around for the parts. Anyone have a recommended place to start looking?

Why bring a gun to a knife fight when you can bring a howitzer?
