You need to find a shop with the right equipment.
Did anyone mic the drums to check the ID?
If there was enough of a lip to hang the shoes; they may very well be worn out.
You can't just press the studs out as the are swaged in place.
If the shop doesn't know this; then they won't have the tools to cut
the swage and swage new studs in place.
If they are worn beyond limits; new drums are in order.
New drums are cast and don't use swaged studs. Hubs need to be fitted with press in studs.
If all else fails, while pricey, a set of Boling Bros drums along with a set of their hubs is something to think about.
