2001 Ranger Rear Drum Brake Problems

Hey everyone i noticed a grabbing on my rear brakes, assuming the "use it or lose it" motto on e-brakes i have used it everytime i park but i bought it used so i was thinking that was stuck on which it was and now my shoes are TOAST almost metel to metel

my garage quoted me 200-300 for rear shoes, parts kit, new self adjusters, and cable.

i went out and priced the parts to find it would only cost me 75$-85$ for parts, since i have done rear drums on my 87 f-150 however i have never replaced a cable...

any diagrams, help that can be offered on running new drivers side e-brake cable would be helpful

also a diagram of the rear drums how the springs go and everything would help termendosly rather than running from side to side tomorrow


any help that could be offered would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom

This is for a '96, but it should still be the same. Good luck with the brake job.

You can take a pix before you start, or use the pass side as a guide. They are the same. jim d
