Off topic:

I have read that I may need to back off shoes as this these could get caught in the grooves in the drum causing removal problem/s?

Parking brake will be OFF of course.

Possibly but not necessarily. See how it goes.

In the top of the backing plate theres a rubber plug you can remove to insert a screwdriver to back off the brake shoe adjustment. Thats if the drum wont fit over the shoes.

good luck! tell us what happens!
