Do you need to bleed the rear brakes on a 1987 dodge Dakota?

If you suspect that there is air (or other contaminants) in the system, or if the lines have been disconnected for any reason, then yes, the brake lines need to be bled. If you've only replaced the brake pads/shoes, etc., then there is usually no reason to bleed the lines except as indicated above.


Is there anything special to do when changing the rear brakes on a 99 Dakota truck?

I have a 99 Dakota and when I changed the rear brakes there was noting special I had to do to them. just remember with any rear "drum" brakes. you need to make sure when you replace the shoes that you also replace the hardware (tension springs, hold down springs). If you go to any auto part store and ask them for the rear brake hardware kit they will know what you are talking about.
