Yes. The cracks will probably open up and the shoes fall into pieces.
When the shoes/pads have less than 10% of lining left. When shoes/pads are cracked or damaged. When the drums/rotors are replaced.
Could be, broken/missing brake hold down hardware, cracked/broken brake shoes, frozen brake cylinder, frozen e-brake cable,
I am not a car professional but I think that installing brake shoes simply means installing brake pads. And brake pads are what helps you slow down and stop while driving.
Could be from cracked or glazed brake pads or shoes. Have them safety inspected.
Most vehicles regardless of what manufacterers say is around 50k miles depending on your driving habits. Unless you have a warped, or mirrored rotors, bad calipers, or cracked broken brade pads/shoes
How long the shoes last depend on the driving conditions and usage. If the e-brake is set and forgotten, the shoes will wear conciderably faster. Usually, the brakes will last as long as the normal shoes will. A lot of the answer will also depend on the type of vehicle used in this question...

Remove the tire and wheel from your Mitsubishi. Remove the brake spring and the brake caliper. The brake shoes will come off. Reverse the process to install your new brake shoes.
A stuck e-brake cable, missing/broken brake hold down hardware, cracked brake linings, stuck wheel cylinder, grease/oil on right rear brake shoes, out of adjustment, a pinched or crushed brake line leading to that wheel.
The simplest way to fit rear brake shoes to your 1996 vehicle is to purchase the appropriate brake shoes. The appropriate brake shoes will automatically fit perfectly.
Could be a few things such as, e-brake cables stuck or frozen, wheel cylinders stuck or frozen or leaking, brake shoe hold down hardware broken or missing, brake shoes cracked, leaky axle seals, brake shoes adjusted to tight, drums out of round or beyond wear limits.
