Re: 1985 GB122 1200 Sunny Ute
Spent all afternoon trying to put coupe rear brake boosters in. Had trouble putting drums back on after it and had to loosen the adjusters and handbrake right tension off. Is this normal?
Also have to bleed all four brakes now. How do I go about this?
rear to front, left to right?

Yea that's normal. Have to have everything backed off to allow for new brake shoe thickness.
Usually bleed the wheel that's the furtherist away from master cylinder. Eg left rear- right rear- left front- right front.
