does anyone have a DIY for the rear drums please?

[Schubeedoobee]

I have looked at most all of the threads concerning the rear drums including all the FAQ's above and I can not seem to find a DIY/with pictures for the rear drums... can someone help me out with that please? specially concerning adjustment and setting travel or hand brake back to normal operation afterwards.
thanks in advance.

I think not many of us have had to deal with drum brakes before. But this makes for an interesting read,

Here in The Netherlands only the more expensive 8'th gen's have discs.

Don't know if you can see the pics without registerring: http://www.corollaforum.nl/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=28830

It's written in Dutch, but try translate it in Google.

I think the main thing is to lift both back wheels
so you can use one side as a reference.
Take pictures . I also made drawings

Get a Haynes Manual.

For the couple extra $$ it costs I'd recommend getting a hardware kit also. The hardware kit contains all new springs and clips. A lot of times they get old and rusty and it's easy to break or bend something.

thanks guys... I did order a hardware kit, new drums and pads. I should be good to go.
I'd rather go to the factory manual than a haynes, but any will help.

+1 for factory manual too. Sold my Haynes after getting mine.
