How do you remove rear brake drums on a 2006 Toyota Tacoma?

Use a 2 or 3 lb sledge hammer. With the wheel off, hit the drum about three inches from its outside; rotating around the drum with each hit. You should see the drum slightly separate from the axle hub (the thing on the other side of the drum w/ studs sticking through the drum) with each blow. Note: Do not hit the drum into tomorrow, only cock back about a foot or two with each swing... start soft, hitting harder until you see it move. Once the drum is about 1/4" from its original position, if its still stuck (after its loose from the axle hub) you may need to loosen the star wheel inside the drum to allow the overall circumference of the shoes to shrink (look for an oval opening on the back/bottom of the backing plate, its in there. You can also try prying a little only after loosening the drum with the hammer too. Your rear brakes on your Toy, with normal use, should last over 100,000 miles.
