How do you change rear brakes on a 1994 Chevy Blazer S-10?

Answer 1

get A buddy.double check!Hello, Jamison here, I do not want to discourage you, but this is A fairly difficult job for someone who has not done it before, It is VERY important to get back EXACTLY as it was removed, It can be put together wrong and appear to be correct to an unexperienced person, when you drive it can come apart and pop out the pistons in the wheel cylinder, This will cause fluid loss and eventually brake failure, This will not take long either, just about 2 to 8 times on the pedal,,,,,,,,,,,, Now, If you are still interested in doing this yourself,Jack up both sides, SUPPORT car very well,take off both Hubs,Study them very well, PAY CLOSE ATTENTION to which parts are on the front side of the axle, and the back side as well, You will not know what these parts are but you can figure it out by looking at it, these parts can be either front/rear of axle, and the same from side to side, or different, LOOK TO SEE IF THEY ARE THE SAME OR DIFFERENT, left side right side, DO NOT,,,,,,,,,DO NOT,,,,,,,,, DO NOT! do not take both sides apart at the same time, you will want the opposite side as A reffrence, That's also why you need to know if it is set up as, YOUR LEFT-YOUR LEFT,,,,,,,,or,,,,,,,,FRONT OF AXLE-FRONT OF AXLE, The parts you are looking for are,automatic adjuster,emergency brake actuator,long springs, short springs,LONG SHOE, SHORT SHOE,,,,,,,A lot of times the shoe metal is the SAME, but the amount of brake material is different. If you have A digital camera, take several pictures of the side you are working on from several angles., GOOD LUCK,,,,,BE SAFE,,,,,,Jamison.
