Exclamation E320 wagon - rear brake job
I need to replace rear pads & rotors on my 1998 E320. I have done the front set easily before, rears have me concerned about the E brake component. Are the rears more complicated because of that? I was told that the drum / shoe assembly can fly apart and become a nightmare to put back together. Seems like the rotors would not be part of that, though. Looking for suggestions / advice. Thanks!

Rear brakes are just as easy as the fronts. Check the DIY mentioned above and do not be afraid.

What is the DIY link for replacing the back brakes? I'm looking for the same, but came across this thread from a search.

Thanx
