QUOTE any how to on rear brake drums?? i need to help my friend change his 97 ST....i converted mine ST to GT rear disc which was a paint in the a$$ any info would be great Take off the wheel and stick a bolt into the hole on the drum. Turn it in and the hub will pop off. If the pads are worn down completely I would take the drums to a shop to have them turned. Then pop the spring off that connects the two shoes ( I think there is one on top and one on the bottom) and replace. Put the drums back on and call it a day. -------------------- 1991 MR2 - T-tops - Crimson Red - Gen3 3SGTE - Lots of money
