When you pull on them, see if they're gripping at the hub, or what.
Drums OFTEN rust onto the hub.
One trick is to drill a 1/8" hole about 1/8" deep (hurts nothing) right
where the drum meets the hub, in the center where the "tower" for the
bearing and cap meets the drum. Squirt some GOOD loosener juice in
there, AeroKroil, PB Blaster, etc. Bang with a 2x4 or something which
will vibrate the joint and wick in more juice.
