Re: '88 Grand Wagon brake job

Spent part of yesterday tearing down one side. I took digital photos along 
the way. There are two potential snags.

First, the linkages etc associated with the emergency brake. They were 
hidden from view by the shoes, so I couldn't really get a good look or a 
photo of how that all connected. There is a piece of hardware directly 
hooked to the cable and I just let it hang for now, I didn't see any sense

taking it apart from the cable if it isn't necessary.

Second, there is a piece attached to the shoe farthest back...the left
shoe 
when looking at the right rear. I think its an actuator lever? (I don't
have 
my Haynes book with me) Anyway, the book says to make sure not to lose the

pivot. Well there's no chance of that since it's looks to be in there too 
good. The pivot won't slide out, feels more like a rivet. I hit it good
with 
wd 40 and I'll pry it out I guess. The spring kit looks like it has some
of 
these so I'll use a new one if I booger up the old one.

I took the rubber boots off the wheel cylinders and the insides look 
pristine, so I'm going to go with the old ones.
