I need to replace the rear brake shoes on my 2000 Honda Odyssey. It looks like there are holes that you are supposed to screw bolts into in order to make the drums come off (you can't just use a hammer to smack the back of the drums to make them come off). Does anybody know what size those bolts are supposed to be, and is this the corret way to do that?

DO NOT hit the brake drum with a hammer.  Use the holes for their intended purpose.  Get yourself two 8/1.5x25mm at the hardware store and thread them in as designed.  The drum will essentially pop right off.
