This is not as simple as it seems. I've been doing research on this and if you don't have any experience with it I would find someone who does. The main problem is to know how to back up the drum with something when using the press to remove or install the new hub bolt/s. If you don't have that under control you will mess up the drum. Try to find a brake shop that has a machine shop and an old timer who is familiar with the job.
