Need help with ATC 90

[ATC350X 85]

I am having trouble getting the drum off for the drum brakes. It is fairly rusty around the axle and ive tried using PB blaster and tapping the drum with a hammer. Is there any better technique for removing it? Is the part of the drum that goes around the axle splined to the axle? Someone clue me in here.

The brake drum is splined to the axle. When it's not rusty it should slip on / off fairly easy. Once it gets rusty it can be a pain. I have a special beater tool I use that allows me to beat the axle out.
You might try getting a piece of pipe that just fits over the hub splines and beat the axle out that way.

Ok, so i have the 2 axle nuts, spacer and that drum cover off. so just put the hub back on and beat it out with a pipe? It should just fall out once i take the chain off and other tire? I dont want to botch anything, I always by a manual but this is a low budget beater. I have a little over $100 into it now so once I get 3 tires ill still have under $200 into it ya know.
