if you maintain your brakes and check things out periodically back there, the drum should come right off. if you've never pulled the drums to inspect your brake linings, condition of return springs/hold down hardware, etc. then it may be difficult, but no more difficult than taking the drums off the axle of an older car. if there's a lip, back off the adjuster star wheel with a flat tiped screw driver, and if it's rusted to the axle shaft then hammer on it some, use a little heat, or drain the rear diff and pull the C-clips to pull the whole axle off and beat it off once the axle is removed.
