The lugs don't mount to the drum, they mount to the axle flange and pass through the drum. The drum is held on by the wheel and lug nuts (and 30 years of rust, the wear ring around the inside of the drum, the curse on DIYers, etc :p ...). 3/4 tons can be different. Mine also have two flat head screws holding the drum to the flang, but they just hold things together while changing a tire.


Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice)
\'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run.
My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787.

Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
