Removing Rear Drum 2006 Aveo

[xintersecty]

OK I think the engineers between Daewoo and Chevy came up with the most frustrating assembly or just plain evil.

I know this question has been asked before (like a million times) and I have diligently read all of them. I can't get my rear drums off. <- please no comments from the peanut gallery GRIN.

Here is a picture of my setup:


This is my assumption: I think there is a center cap concealing a the big 35mm nut. I can see two different kinds of metal there. I think there is faint grove between the two parts. So I tried pulling this part off. I used the big pliers to pull the cap. I tried a screwdriver between the two parts.

I tell you, it's not going. So I am asking for the sage advice of my fellow aveo owners who have done such.

HELP! whimper....
