Hi Arie, Have you wound the adjuster back off?
You can also disconnect the pull rod (remove a clevis pin) and push the rod back into the bisector. It might help to do this first, then adjust the brakes up tight, and then back the adjusters right off. Your drum might be worn with a shoulder (ridge) that the brake linings will not pass. Maybe turning the drum as you pull it will help. If every thing else fails try undoing the bolts and nuts that hold the adjuster assembly and the bisector (actuator) assembly and carefully tap them in as you pull the drum off. Be careful. The drum and hub assembly is heavy. Let us know how you go.

When you pull it back, does the hub stil rotate freely? If not, then it is the shoes dragging, or there is a ridge on the inside of the drum. Lynn's advise should work.
If you pull it back to the point of sticking, and the drum will still turn freely, then you problem is either a nick or slight corrosion on the spindle or a cocked bearing. Push the drum back in, with a brass drift gently tap the outer bearing back in and try again. If the outer bearing is already off, then most it may be that you are cocking the hub as you remove it. For the nick or the cocked bearing, and even for the shes if it isn't too tight, a little more force is fine.

If you wind the expander right in so the shoes would be clear of the drum, then go around the outside of the drum with a rubber mallet, that sometimes helps to unstick the shoes from the drums.
Any pics of the one you have removed ?

The next best thing is to remove the two bolts and nuts that hold the brake actuator and the adjustment block and remove the shoes and the drum together.
