Which TM for rebuilding my brakes?

Hi guys.
I went ahead and purchased 6 new wheel cylinders, all new seals, a few wheel bearings, a few springs, and all new shoes for my 109a3.
I've got the first rear wheel apart, and it appears pretty straightforward, but would love some tips or tricks, and would like to know which TM contains info on this. I've been looking through them, but my phone is not the best, and downloading all of them isn't an option!
Thanks in advance.
Ps, I got all my parts from big Mike's, so no ebay or off brand stuff and yes, I bought the 3" 8 point socket, and I will clean up the inside of the drum before reinstalling.

The -24 and -24P manuals should cover this. They are in the TM section of this site, look under the Deuce, because the M109 Shop Van is just one of the many variants of the M-35 series of deuce-and-a-half's.
I checked out the TM'S, either I'm not looking in the right place, or there's just not much info. I found an exploded diagram, and that's about it. I did find a pretty good YouTube video on adjusting the brake shoes, though.
