The very large screws are pegs which drive the brake drum and are NOT TO
BE REMOVED. On a wire wheel car there are always suppossed to be 4 1/4 bsf
cap screws (bolts) which hold the drum in place against the hub. On a disc
wheeled car, I believe that there should be 4 flat head slot drive screws
that hold the drums in place and they are driven by the same studs that hold
the wheels on.
