Here we go!
Supplies needed:
rear brake shoes
rear brake hardware kit
Tools need:
Vise Grips
Flat head screwdriver
19mm deep well impact socket
impact or breaker bar
Special tools: OPTIONAL
Brake spring tool
1: Jack up truck and place it on jack stands
2: remove wheel
you now see this ( i have 10" brakes but 9" are the same )
3: remove drum
you now see this
4: remove blue spring first ( or whatever color yours is just go by the pictures lol)
5: remove hold down spring ( this requires the vise grip, clamp down on the sliver piece and push in and rotate)
6: now pull the pad out and down and this bottom blue spring will undo its self 9/10
7: remove the parking brake lever ( dont lose the anti rattle spring) ( if yours is already gone, dont worry bout it, you dont need it but it helps reduce brake noise)
8: now remove yellow spring
keep in mind how this is
the little silver metal chord will probably fall off also ill get to that later
9: remove the hold down pin and spring
10: remove the little clip that holds parking brake to pad
Now this is what you brakes look like ( use this as a reference )
11: now put parking brake lever back on new pad
12: hook bottom blue spring like this ( remember that silver chord here it is )
13: Now put the hold down spring and pin back on to hold the shoe in place ( i found putting the little cap like this in the vise grip make it alot easier to put on )
14:now make sure you route the silver chord like this and put it on first
15: now put on the yellow spring
16: now this is the hard part using the other pad get it all back like this ( this takes alot of playing and dont forget to get the star wheel adjuster in place!
17: now put the hold down pin and spring in
18: put the upper blue spring in
19: now using the screwdriver spin the adjuster till you get slight rubbing on the drum and you are golden
here is how u adjust them
enjoy your rear brakes!
use all the pictures to your advantage and make sure you get it right, and only do one side at a time so you have the other side as a reference
