Drum brake hardware kits?
Hello all, I've lurked around here for a few months but I'm still kind of new to forums so try to be a little easy on me
I've used the search feature but didn't have much luck, also I'm new to working on cars and I'm learning as I go
I'm doing my rear drum brakes on my '92 RS and am going to replace all the springs and whatnot.
I was looking at this kit
http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...14921|L2*15008
from Advance auto parts but customer reviews state that it is missing pieces to finish the job.
Can someone recommend a hardware kit with everything I need? The only other auto parts store in my area besides Advanced are Autozone, NAPA, and O'reily Auto Parts.
Thanks in advance!

Pics show everything needed to rebuild rear drum brakes: however, the pics are not 3rd gen-- email or call, maybe they have 3rd gen.
None the less, pics show all parts needed.

Why are you replacing them? If they don't break they should pretty much last for ever. Cleaning and greasing should be all that's needed.

What they're "missing" is the adjusters. Which as luck would have it, is what is needed, a lot of the time, as those have threads that rust together and freeze up. N00bs don't realize that those aren't part of the hardware kit and so think they're "missing" instead of asking for a set of those at the same time.
Go ahead and get em; they're perfectly OK. Just make sure to ask for the adjuster assemblies too. http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/web...921%7CL2*15008
