Default 01 Dakota Drum Brakes

Hey everyone, I have a 01 dakota SLT 4x4 and I need to replace the rear brake shoes, only problem is I don't know what size to get. I went to NAPA and the guy asked me if I needed the 9" or the 11" size shoes and I'm not sure what size to get. Anyways I don't want to take them off then go up there and see which ones I need (just incase there not in stock) So is there anyway to measure the drum itself to determine what size shoe I need?
Thankyou.

The drum is what they are refering to. Jack it up... pull the wheel and slip the drum off... then measure the inside diameter of the drum.
