I'm getting ready to do the rear brakes on my Camaro. Is there anything special I need to keep in mind while I'm doing them? Or, is this just a straight forward GM brake job?

Bone Stock, except for:

(Performance)
Flowmaster cat back exhaust

(Non-Performance)
Pioneer DEH-P4000 head unit
Pioneer 6X9 Tri-Ax speakers
Jensen 8" dual voice coil sub
Blacked out tail lights and side markers (VHT
Nightshades spray tint)

(Hopefully these lists will grow quickly)

I like to think of it as a empty canvas

They are just like most all GM drums. I always get the hardware kit(springs and stuff)The kit I got was like 4 bucks and included all the hardware for both sides. Ever had one of those pins rust through and break--bad stuff can happen.

I was planninng on getting the hardware kit, along with shoes, drums, and maybe wheel cylinders if they look like they need it. I was just wondering if there was anything speacial to look out for. thanks for the input

It looks like you have it figured out.

If you've done GM drum brakes before then you know all you need to know.
