Wondering if anyone has seen a walkthrough for replacing the OEM rear brake pads (shoes)? Its getting about that time.

 

 

Its pretty simple if you think about it but its the work you have to put into is the hard part. Easiest way to take the drum off is bang on it with a hammer until it loosens. Next take a picture of the shoe & all the springs connected to it. Make sure you do 1 side at a time just in case you forget where something goes at least you have the other untouched side for reference. I have about 50k miles on my car & my rear shoes are still good. To be honest its a pain in the butt changing those things out versus from brakes, i would rather pay someone else to put them on for me. But hey thats just me though.

 

This is for an Echo, but it should be basically the same
