best bet is to buy a Chilton's or something. all drum brakes are pretty much the same. and they're all a pain in the *** imo.

Excellent advice... just a little too late. The stealership would probably print off a picture of the drum assembly for you. I wish mine had rear disc I hate drum brakes.

I don't think so. Several springs that go in certian places, parking brake levers, ect. If you don't know where the springs go your screwed.
