Before we start, yes i have got another haynes manual on its way to me just haven;t recieved it yet. I have forgotten how to remove the rear drums on my mini. I need to remove one to fix one of the studs which has come loose (is a small tack weld a suitable repair)

Any help would be much appricated. Also any cure for siezed brake adjusters. I have them soaking in WD40 hopefully that will cure it.

Just take wheel off, take out the screw if it has one, and pull them off (wack with a hammer on the side to break the rusty seal if it has one)

the adjusters screw from the inside of the wheel arch to inside of the drum to take them out.

use a blow torch and get these RED HOT! then go for it with some lube when they have cooled a shade
