Hello I own a 99 hyundai accent, I replaced the front brake pads and rotors but I am having a problem removing the rear drums. I removed the lug nuts and wheels and tapped on the drums a bit but there stuck, there is no window on the backing plate to adjust the shoes in . give me some ideas! Thanks ED

Does your drums have small threaded holes in them that are not being used? If so they are used to jack the drum off the same as my honda. Find out what size they are and get them about 1 to 1 1/2 inches long then screw the drums off.
