Brakes problem
1998 Saturn SC1 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

rear drums will not come off of the spindle, is there an adjustment screw somewhere on the back plate to loosen up the shoes so the drum will come off?

If the drum spins freely here's what u do. Get some liquid wrench spray it around the center hub area of the drum. Let it soak in atleast 10 mins then get a hammer and tap around the outter face of the drum that should get it loose. There really isn't any acess from the backing plate to the star wheel adjuster. Let me know how it goes.
