I just replaced my rear brakes today, and thought I would post some photos, showing how the hardware should

brake shoe on both driver's and passenger's sides:
And last, but important, especially if you live where the salt the roads, put anti-seize grease on the center hub. More important
if you have aluminum alloy wheels:

Wow Bob - nice photos. If I already haven't had experience with brake shoes and drums I would think I was in heaven with these shots.
