Question Trying to replace wheel cylinder

Hi, just wondered if anybody can give me some tips on how to get started replacing the rear brake wheel cylinder component. I got the wheel off and removed the nuts that i assume have something to do with the axel, but nothing budged after that. Do I need to pry or hammer at something in order to get inside this drum?

The drum should slide off after you smack it a bit with a hammer to loosen it up. I've only done it on a gmc but im sure it's the same for the dodge. Make sure to not hit the threads.

Good luck!

If I remember right you have to remove the whole hub to remove the drum.
