Default '98 MC Rear Drum Brake Re-build...
I'm Wondering if anyone could give me some tips on this before I start on rear
drum brake re-build on my 1998 Monte Carlo LS with ABS.

I finished with the Front Disc brakes & everything seems to work well. The rear
needs to be done soon. I pulled the drum off & it looks to be a little more
complicated than the old '65 Impalas I have much experience with!

Any expertise on this ? Things I should beware of ? I have a Hayne's manual...
but- you know how that is... !!

Thank YOU!

Do one side at a time so you can use the other as a comparison. Put a little grease where the shoe touches the backing plate.
