    the sad thing is...the shop unsticks drums everyday, that's how they get them off. if he goes in and tells them he can't get the stuck drums off...cha ching $$$. they will make it sound like it's an extra fee to get them off...:yup:

    IMHO, you could cut it all off with a torch and put disc brakes on it for the same $ a shop will charge to redo the drum brakes.
