Update on the rear end noise
I noticed when driving that the brakes would sort of not respond but then they would catch. I took off the rear brake drum with the noise i've been hearing in mind and then the brake pad fell off! It was only one of the two on the right side. It just baffles me how someone could think that GLUE is whats stopping you. I dunno if its a factory thing to glue the brake pads on but it just doesn't seem safe. I heard that you can rivet it on somehow so i'll have to check that out later.

I prefer riveted pads/shoes for that very reason. You will note that all high performance brake parts are riveted.

OEM shoes have rivets.....non oem are usually glued ...I have used both never heard of the glue failing... OEM shoes are big bucks... perhaps the drum ridge was a factor in the failure..
