Hello,
I am looking for a little help with replacing my rear brake backing plates.
Specs:
69 roadrunner Dana 60 rear end.
5x4.5 bolt pattern
11"x2.5" brakes
Both wheels turn the same direction when up on jacks (I think that might mean something).
Synopsis:
The rear brakes did not have any of the parking brake parts (just shoes, cylinder, springs, and adjuster) when I bought the vehicle. I just picked up a couple brake drum kits that includes everything from the backing plate outward (All new[or refab] parts). I know I have to pull the axles to get the new backing plates on, but I do not remember all the steps. I have done this before, but its been a while since I last replaced the rear seals. I am looking for an auto manual as I type.
Question:
If its not too much trouble - Can someone run me through the steps in replacing the rear axle seals.
Or point me to a good thread, video, or online tutorial.
Thanks,
OWD
