Re: '88 Grand Wagon brake job

Bought my rear break parts last month for 86 CJ7, $125.00 got me new 
shoes, new drums, new cylinders, and spring kit. I've never done brakes 
before, daughter took first year machanics and neighbour was machanic for
45 
years, so I'll do them myself and get them to double check. I just bolted
my 
rear end under my new frame so don't know when they will get done. But I 
think if like me you bought all the parts and did one at a time so you had

the other to go by, it's just a matter of taking apart and putting back 
together.
