Same process, got to get them loose enough to turn or remove.   I would say that wheel cylinder rebuilds are in your future.

Bill,

Thanks.  Yes I'll be careful.  My problem is NOT getting the drums off, it's getting
the wheels to turn so I can drive it or get it on a tow truck and have it moved to
my place. :)
