Default 2005 TXT rear brakes - need help

Trying to remove my hubs. Was trying to adjust the brakes off and went wrong way. Now I can't turn the wheel anymore. Hub won't turn now either.

HOW do I back them back off?

Nevermind...got it.

In case anyone finds this in a search I just had to take a screwdriver and hammer and tap it to free it up to go backwards after prying up the little spring cover.

FYI: My hub nut was loose and the hub splines are a little goobed up. Put it back on and tightened nut really good. Hopefully it'll last.

get a flash light and look in the hole where you are adjusting the brakes, and you will see a flat piece of metal pressing on the adjustment wheel, you need two screw drivers, push one in the hole to hold the spring loaded flat plate off the adjuster wheel, and with the other screw driver, adjust the wheel the other way to loosen it

And how tight is really good?? you need to tighten to 120# and do NOT back off to put the pin in, tighten it more

As tight as I could get it by hand. It's past the cotter pin hole by a good bit.
