It's been a while, lost my internet connection when we moved our factory.
I have missed you-all.
On with the problem.
I have been leaking fluid from the rear driver side, so it has become time to do the rear breaks.
1st question; which shoes? "12" X 2.5" Brakes" or "12" X 3" Brakes."
2nd question, will I need to pull the axles with the drums?
I tried to search in the tech articles for info, any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've done drum breaks before, just not on this beast.
Any special tools needed?
This has become my daily driver, so I'm hoping to make only one trip to the Napa store
2 slave cylinders $11.88 Ea.
Shoes $31.69- $63.99
Break cleaner @ $10.00
3 pints of break fluid @ $15.00
Break adjusting tool ???
Anything else?
I really need this to be a one day repair.
Thanks in advance,
