drum9.jpg This truck uses [url=https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000C5DBBS]BR100[/url] 12x3" shoes, which are location-specific (each shoe is unique). I found it easiest to grease & hang the front one; then connect the upper retractor spring, grease, and rotate the rear shoe onto the pushrod; then hook the lower spring across them; then install the autoadjuster; then the autoadjuster arm & its spring; then hook the e-brake cable to its arm; then hang that stack of parts (bolt, washer, spring, e-brake arm, e-brake cam, autoadjuster cable) last.  The final step is to raise the autoadjuster arm enough to hook its cable (which must be routed over the guide on the rear shoe).  All points of metal-to-metal contact are greased. The only tools needed are:
[url=https://shop.snapon.com/product/Truck-Brake-Tools/Brake-Retainer-Spring-Tool/B1359B]Snap-On B1359B[/url] for shoe retainer springs
1/2" socket & ratchet for e-brake lever nut
BP hammer to drive e-brake lever bolt splines in (prybar during disassembly)
Drum caliper (to pre-set autoadjuster) similar to https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GIUCSK
