I am trying to change my drum brakes right now. I couldn't get the drum cover off so I got a screw driver and adjusted the little thing in the back of drum and that didn't help because I think I tightened it to much so now that wheel is locked up and wont spin. The other one will. PLEASE HELP!

 

Loosen the start wheel behind inside the drum and take a hammer and a piece of wood and smack the **** out of it

 

Wtf is the start wheel and how do i loosen it?

 

it takes two screw drivers on to push the automaic adjuster lever away from the star and the other to back the star wheel the pther way

 

Sounds like you turned the adjuster the wrong way. Back it off (adjust the other way) andsee if it frees up.

 

yea just back that star wheel off and it should come off with some help of a hammer. and make sure your parking brake isnt on lol

 

On the back side of the drums theres a little opening on the bottom side of the drum take a flat head and loosen it just read this

from the slot in the backing plate push this lever away from the star and turn the adjuster back the other way to loosen them
