The wedge can be popped up using a smaller flat screwdriver via one of the wheel bolt holes in the drum. That's the procedure listed in the Bentley for removing the drum. If it won't turn at all though you might have issues - I probably would have stopped when the drum wouldn't slip on.I've gotten the drum back on the axle.
However, the brake shoes are SO TIGHT, I had to force the drum back on by hitting it with a log, it's so tightly on there, the drum won't turn.
I've got a suspicion that the reason for this tightness is probably, that the "adjuster wedge" is in the "maximum wedge the shoes out toward to the drum" position.
Any easy way to retract that "adjuster wedge" without removing the drum again?
