you'll usually have to undo your hard brake lines from the drum, as well as the e-brake cable. its a minor issue, but i thought i'd through it in. just dont forget to bleed them after.
also a good time to do wheel bearings.......wink wink

Well #1, make sure the fill plug isn't frozen before you start; if you can't fill it back up there's no reason to drain it.
#2 you don't have to remove the drums to pull the axles out enough to clear the third, you will have to un-hook the E-brake cable from the clips on the frame & that's all, you don't even have to undo them from the axle assembly
