jsc7002 , drum brakes are not hard to work on but there are safety concerns if you've never performed this type of repair before . If you're going to replace the brakes , get a pad and pencil and make a drawing of the location of all the brake parts . Use a water hose and wash down the brake assembly once you've removed the drum ,wash the drum also , lots of brake dust and not something you want to breath . Generally the drums should be turned even if their smooth to the touch . You want to break the glaze to help seat the new brakes to the drum . Replace the wheel cylinders with new ones , and bleed the entire system rear to front . Fresh brake fluid will do wonders for the brake feel as well as removing contamination from the system . There are lube points on the backing plates ,you'll see where the brake shoes contact the backing plates . Use a small amount of hi-temp grease . Make sure you install the brake shoes in the proper position and make sure the self adjuster is in it's correct position . Do one side at a time so you won't mix parts side to side . As you install the brake drums ,adjust the brakes to give a slight drag on the drums when you turn them , bleed the brakes starting at the right rear and ending at the left front . Don't stop until you get all of the air out at each bleed point . All in all , not a bad job but double check your work so your satisfied everything is correct . And I agree that Napa is your friend ,good parts at a reasonable price . You can go on-line and check prices between Napa and any of the other auto parts stores .
