2001 Brake drums

On a 2001, Are the brake drums slip on or do I have to pull the hub?

they are slip on, loosen the adjusters, then with a lug nut on each side start the truck, put in gear and stab the brakes, they will pop loose slick as a whistle. do not forget the lug nut or you might have to chase down the drum

Interesting, I thought '01+ trucks all had 4 wheel disc brakes? Oh, well.
