^^^ As above but instead of the puller, put the wheel back on and use it to rock the drum outwards and itll come off easier then
I tried EVERYTHING with mine and nothing would budge them!!!! (apart from a puller)
Weak
Even a few mechanics tried, at one point we were contemplating angle grinding them off, and replacing lol

jack car up and put axle stand under it make sure its 100% secure!
undo the hub nut
put the wheel back on
lay under the car an kick the s**t out of the wheel till pulls the drum off with it. it will come eventually

My daughters '99 plate 106 went to ATS and even with the right kit for the job they struggled. It's not expensive to get it done properly (unless it's totally kn**kered) and brakes are a saftey issue!!
