First, remove all the usual brake stuff, the shoes and all that, like you were doing a normal brake job. Then rotate all hardware on the wheel cyl (2 bolts, one line) counterclockwise. Allow gravity to take over. Hold new wheel cyl where the old one was. Rotate all hardware clockwise until tight. Re-install shoes and stuff. Bleed.
