Might try the Autozone website vehicle repair guide section.

Rear drum brakes are almost all identical as far as removal/installation. Not too much difference on how they go together except fer the bolt sizes. 
Ooo I see thank you! I just read around on the forums that some of the drums just comes off with some pressure and some has the spindle/axle bolt that holds it on so I'm sorta worried. I also read something about the wheel bearings. I'm just trying to get as much information as possible so when I take on the task I'm not confused 100% of the time. :lol:Rear drum brakes are almost all identical as far as removal/installation.

Since you are changing the shoes...you need to make sure you put the right ones in the right place. I think it's broken down by primary and secondary shoes? I think primary shoes face towards the front of the vehicle...but I can't remember.
Git the drums cut at the machine shop. Yer gonna have to call around to find out who and how much. Also, pick up a couple of cans of brake cleaner. Don't try to blow the dust buildup or wash it with water. Make sure you wear eye protection and don't breathe in the dust. Take yer time. Do you have a factory service manual? Those really come in handy...
