[jeswade]

i have an 1983 toyota 4x4 do they make any ind of tool to put those little springs in on the rear brakes?? the two that hold the brakes pads on? this is a drum brake..you got a washer with a slot in it than you put the spring on than another washer with slot and you need to push it all together and twist..

I use needle nose pliers to put those on, easy to do. The top & bottom springs are the pain.

most of your local auto part store should carry a drum brake tool kit.
