I have changed my rear breaks shoes on both sides. As I took it a part I just laid everything to the side, without changing a thing.

Open end pointing to the car. Lug nuts through the holes. Make sure the adjuster is fully collapsed. Slide the drum over the shoes.

That is what I thought, Rivermike... never heard it called a cover. Also, SSG, if you go to our homepage, there are detailed instructions under the DIY section.

Let us know if it helps.
