Well, it turns out to be a *lot* easier than I anticipated. After doing a hot-take, remembering how drum brakes work, I disengaged the parking brake and the drum came right off. Luckily the brake assembly inside the drum has a few open areas to pound the old wheel stud out and thread a new one through.
I purchased this wheel stud (

I think tomorrow I'm going to buy enough to re-do the entire back two wheels just to have everything sit nice and even.
