Default Anyone know about the OG Drum Brakes?

I'm replacing pads on my rear Drum brakes. I need some help!

Brakes are worn out and making noise, grinding...

What parts do I need to replace--Just pads and rotors or are there other recommended parts?

And--Any DIY info? PDF manual, or anything? The tech section here is blank on the subject.

Need help from the pros! thanks!

I didn't know Tc's ever had drum brakes. I thought they were disc brakes on all 4 corners.

The e-brake is a small drum brake in the center of the rear rotor. Is this what you are talking about?

from what i heard was that the rear drum is only made mainly for the e-brake. the pads and rotors are mainly made specifically for the brakes.
