The screws are #3 Phillips and you must use a #3 to remove them or you
will destroy them. I can usually break them loose by putting a
crescent wrench around the handle of the screwdriver to gain enough
leverage to break them loose. If that fails you may have to use an
impact driver to loosen them.
Did you store the car with the emergency brake on for an extended
period of time? Doing so will rust the rear shoes to the drum....
