doing rear brakes on US 98 Rodeo 2WD

Postby wbski007 » Sat Jun 05, 2010 11:23 pm

going to do front and rear brakes on the ole zu, fronts should be simple but was wondering about the rear drums, anything special I should know before I start, tricks or short cuts maybe, I'm sure its going to lots of fun and I can't wait :cry: 98 2WD US Rodeo

If its drums it should be fairly standard fare
Sanding your knuckles before starting work can help. That way you cant skin them

As i commented in another thread, the big spring was always a pain in the arse for me and remembering exactly which lug and direction the spring sat. Next time I will take a picture of it with the drum off before I start stripping the pads/cylinder out
