This rear drum setup on this 65 c10 was used on trucks and full size cars into the late 90s. Sure shoe width and length were a little different but my 74 nova, 80 malibu, 87 blazer, 88 caprice and 97 Silverado all had this configuration. Compare that to today's cars and some aspects change on any given vehicle within the same year of manufacture.

Great point, rear brakes stayed relatively unchanged for decades, front disks even took some time before the introduction of improvements as well

Got my axles out and seal covers off. How do you get the bearings out if I want to replace them?

[@AdrianGonzalez-bc8di]

Thank you for posting this. How much gear oil did it take to refill?

[@shortcutgarage]

Just under 2 quarts, maybe 1-3/4 quarts

[@AdrianGonzalez-bc8di]
