Brake drums can be resurfaced by turning the brake drum in a brake drum lathe. When the brake drum has deep grooves in it, it cannot be repaired.
A drum brake is a brake that uses friction caused by a set of shoes or pads that press against a rotating drum-shaped part called a brake drum. The term drum brake usually means a brake in which shoes press on the inner surface of the drum.
Brake warning light (Canadian) in US there is supposed to be "BRAKE" overlaid on the international symbol. Looks like a brake drum with shoes.
Parking brake (also known as emergency brake) foot pedal expands the rear brake shoes against the brake drum holding or stopping the vehicle in an emergency situation not as effective as regular service brakes
The drum and the brake shoes.
Your brake is seized from overheating. It will probably come down to a hammer and replacement parts.
In case of cost..drum brake is better than disc brake.
Remove the grease cap in the wheel center. Then remove the cotter pin, and finally the nut. The brake drum should slide off. Remove the grease cap in the wheel center. Then remove the cotter pin, and finally the nut. The brake drum should slide off.
Sadly, I'm answering my own question. What I did was cut the cable 6" from the brake drum. Important note: the parking brake cable NOT the brake line. After I cut the cable I removed the 6" section of cable and the spring from inside the drum, then sprayed a liberal amount of PB Blaster which allowed the brake to release. Now my P.O.S. drives again. For now....
