SOURCE: where doe's that spring go on rear brake drums 1996 chevy truck every thing is at top not at bottom, star wheel adjuster?

there should be several springs. first there are (2) real short springs that hold the shoes to the dust cover/back plate. they go in the center of each shoe. then there is a short spring that goes at the bottom where the adjuster is located. there should be a hole in each shoe. finally there is a long spring that goes at the top where your brake cylinder is and this is what gets attched last after your emergancy brake levers are placed between the shoes .

Will a 1996 chevy blazer LS 4wd differential fit into a 2000 chevy blazer LS rwd rear end ?

Measure the lenth of both rear ends. see iss all hardware will bolt up without fabrication. if its the same size it will work. But im afraid being a 4 wheel drive it will be geared lower then a regular pick up/ Drive shaft may work but if not it would have to be shortened or lenghthebed. alot of work. Brakes you could leave the non drum breaks on better stopping power. I honestly believe you would be better off just going to a scrap yard and find one very easy to remove and replave few hour job.

Where are back bleeder screws on chevy truck?

If you mean for the rear brakes, and you have drum brakes on the rear, the bleed valves are on the back side of the wheels. Look for where the brake line goes to the wheel brake cylinders, and on top of the small brake cylinder is the bleed valve.

I am trying to do a brake job on a 1991 Chevy 4X4 on the rear brakes. I can not get the brake drum off.

On the brake drum backing plate under the truck on the rear, you will see a slot near the bottom that has a rubber plug in it. Remove the rubber plug and use a brake shoe adjustment tool to adjust the brake shoes in. This will allow you to remove the drum. The tool looks like this and can be bought at any parts store. 1a52e8f.png
