I managed to remove left rear brake assembly in order to try it with another Caprice axle i have lying in garage. Also it is necessary to make list of things to buy...
I've started from the beginning - by removing wheel and drum :)






Next i've removed axle shaft retaining ring...




...and axle shaft itself.


After removing axle shaft it was easy. I've unbolted backing plate not touching anything else - i don't want to lose any spring yet. Axle shaft and wheel was bolted back, brake drum was put on the other axle... and it is evident, that 1981 Caprice (frame donor) has different bolt pattern that 1991 Caprice (axle donor). I will propably put older axle shafts in newer axle in order to stay with that bolt pattern. I don't want to change front hubs and wheels, but it's not for sure yet.
