Im still having trouble removing the drum from the passenger side rear of my 52 3600. I removed the two screws and have beat it with a hammer. It jiggles a bit and still will not come off. The axle spins free so the brakes are not locked. Am I not thinking of something here? I feel like an idiot.

Try backing the adjusters off, it probably has a wear groove and the shoes are holding it on even though the drum spins freely.

What waldo53 wrote... stick a flat blade screwdriver in the hole on the back plate where the adjusters are and back 'em off... a lot!

Then the drum should come off with some wiggling around.
