I need some pointers. I just installed all the new stainless brake lines from classic tube (NICE quality lines btw). I now need to replace the rear brake shoes, wheel cylinders, and springs. I also will need to bleed the entire system once everything is hooked up ready to go. I've never messed with my rear brakes before. Stopping the car used to always be a scary moment at fast speeds! I've since upgraded the front to the 11" Baer brake complete kit system and going with a manual brake master cylinder.
Any pointers on what I should start with first and what to check for? Also, do you need to bleed the new brass proportioning valve? (there is some kind of nipple on the front side of it with a plastic cover over it). I ran all my lines according to the service manual so that is all correct. I already have the 85' S-10 rear wheel cylinders and Kirban larger shoes. Still need to get the spring kit. What about "adjusting" the rear brakes? I didn't know you could adjust them. What needs to be adjusted?
