I need to replace the brakes shoes on my Saturn 4 door. I can't figure out how to get the drums off. I had the same problem with my daughter's Pontiac Sunbird. I can't find where you spin the little adjuster to relax the shoes like on my truck.

Brakes are a piece of cake if I can get the lousy drum off. Any thoughts?

It's in there,but hard to get at.You will need a small wire to push back the adjuster lever.

The access hole is at the top,right below the wheel cylinder.
