you can either remove the hub cover and hub nut or the four 17mm bolts holding the hub on,you get these at the back of the back plate,this would maybe be a better option for yourself as this opens up the complete shoe assy.for replacement,you may want to have a grinder ready too,to remove the wear ridge on the drum and this enables you to adjust the shoes accurately,make sure the h/brake levers are coming right back onto the stops on the rear shoes,if not the cables may be seized/over adjusted,check wheel cyl`s for leaks and freedom of movement while you are there too,good luck
