go to the repair info section after selecting your vehicle from their menu.
It'll get you going in the right direction.
If they are drum brakes, you'll have to unhook a lot of springs and such. Do them one at a time. that way if you forget how a spring or something goes, you can always use the other brake assembly as a reference.

Well, for one, the rear doesn't have calipers. Is called a drum brake setup. You will need a special brake spring tool to remove the springs, thus allowing the shoes to be taken off. Just a note, do one side at a time, so that you have the other side as a reference. You'll see what I mean if you don't and its dark outside.
