Remove the split pin, then with a buzz gun remove the large nut the drum may need a persuasive tap go get it off then once your in see if the shoes need replacing or cleaning and adjusting then do the reverse and fit a new split pin !
What are the best methods for cleaning? Also what do you mean by roughing up?

I'd say so. Easy to do yourself, theres a guide here if you haven't done them before.

▲ as above, could this possibly be brake shoes worn and need replacing. How straight forward is this to do yourself and save on mechanic fees.
