Default Rebuild rear drum brakes.

Does anybody have or know were I can get a rebuild diagram for my 1990 Cherokee limited. I need to rebuild the rear drums and want a good diagram. Want to make sure every thing goes back in the right way.

Thanks guys I appreciate all the help. Gonna try and tackle this job this weekend. My wheel cylinder blew on the passenger side. Only took off that one side so I hope that the driver’s side is still in good condition. Just going to replace all the internals just to be sure.

The wheel cylinder is the round thing at the top when eveything else has been removed. Two bolts hold it to the backing plate and the brake line will have to be removed...install new cylinder and you will have to bleed the brakes to get any peddel back afthe the rebuild. Check out the link in caged's reply and it will give you a lot of info and a good set of instructions to follow. Good wrenching.. If you walk away clean, you wern't working hard enough. LOL
