WTF Is there an easy way to do this? or do i have to disassemble the drum brake crap first? Which i dont think I can get to without removing the hub, but the hub doesnt looks like it wants to come off...hence the reason I want to take the entire knuckle out of the back...I have everything off now and its hanging from the stupid brake cable...If theres no other way im going to hack the cable off and replace the whole damn thing...
if it matters its the disc brake with drum inside setup..
 
Ive got a manual, chilton and alldata online...neither explain it very well...just show a picture...the stupid one they use for wheel bearing/hub/axle removal...and it just shows the cable and tells you to 'remove' it...
Ive gotten the drum shoes all off springs etc, unhooked the cable end from the bracket, but the its still attatched to the back of the hub, if you say it just pops out i guess ill just yank really hard...
more specifically the cable is inside a sheath I guess you could call it...where it can move inside...well that sheath is what im trying to get out...ill go yank on it and see if it comes out..if that doesnt make sense i can take a picture of it

Ok I got it....saw that there was a clip...and then it came out with some prying
