Hi krayc07,

Here are the procedures.

REAR BRAKE DRUM & SHOES
Removal
Raise and support vehicle. Remove rear wheel assembly. Remove drum. Remove brake shoe return springs. Remove adjuster and shoes as an assembly. Separate adjuster and shoes. Remove remaining components, and mark for installation reference.

Installation
1. To install, reverse removal procedure. Apply Lubriplate to backing plate bosses, adjuster assembly threads and parking brake lever pin.

2. Before installing drum, adjust brake shoe clearance. See REAR BRAKE SHOE CLEARANCE under ADJUSTMENTS. After installation is complete, depress brake pedal to center shoes, and check pedal travel. Rotate brake drum to ensure free movement.
