Question
how do i get to the Brake Drum on 1985 chevy suburban

Answer
Hi Cindy.... I take it you mean the rear brake drum...first you have to remove the wheel and rim after jacking up the truck....then once wheel is off the drum slides off the wheel studs. you may have to tap drum with a hammer as it may be siezed on the hub lip...if in doubt have someone that knows something about autos give you a hand....as brake drums can be hard to remove for a number of reasons....hope this helps
