Ok, just finished the rear brakes, thank god i got the tool it saved me a lot of trouble. i still had about an 1/8" or so of pad left, the drums were good so i didn't turn them.i released the emergency brake at the junction thats the way to go. if i hadn't talked to you guy's and watched youtube i would have had a hell of a time.it would have been easyer if GM left the drum brakes the way they were instead of this single spring brake.
