To replace the rear brake shoes on a Piaggio Vespa PX 150, loosen the screws securing the exhaust cover. Once removed, loosen the screws securing the exhaust itself. By removing the exhaust from its position, you will gain access to the central hub pin, which, when removed, will allow you to take off the wheel and access the rear drum. Here, you can remove the drum brake shoes from the corresponding spring, replacing them with new spare parts. Once the replacement is done, all parts can be reinserted.
