Rear break replacement HELP!

I am trying to replace my rear breaks right now and I need assistance. I have a 91 250 automatic and Im not sure how to remove the drum from the rear to get to the breaks. Do I have to remove the 8 bolts that hold the axle shaft? I cant seem to get it off any other way, but I dont want to pull that shaft out until I know for sure.
My clymer manual doesent show this type of rear break type, it only shows a more traditional rear drum system.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
