yea im pretty sure the shoe is stuck in their cause the drum doesnt wanna slide out but is the shoe friction really that strong to lock the wheel from moving? well i tried to loosen the parking b. line and it didnt work and a hammer to beat the drum out didnt work eather any ideas? wd40? im just glad the engine is fine lol

SOmetimes there is a groove worn inside the drum that creates a lip that will hold it in place if the shoes are hard against the drum. Try some good raps on the side of the drum and see if it knocks those shoes back in place. Did you bleed off any pressure on the lines?

That is your adjustment wheel. Someone obviously adjusted it too tight. Glad you got her off.
