85 Brake drum attaching screws needed?
Hi all!
Are the Brake drum attaching screws needed on an 85 rear drum brake setup. I am speaking of the two small screws that screw into the outside of the brake drum. They are interfering with my new wheels. Can I just get rid of them all together?
Thanks in advance!

Thats what I thought. So it should be no problem if I remove them right. The wheels keep the drum in place?
