Question Emergency brake rebuild

Ok, storage and project time. My season is over and time to shift to skiing to fill my insatiable need for speed.
Biggest project is new e brake shoes and rebuild of system as required. Other than the shoes, what else should I round up before I pull the disks and tear into things? I would like to do this in a day and not have things hanging while I am waiting for parts from our host. Lots of stuff there and do not want to replace things that are still functional.

Search really did not yield much help.

Thanks for any advice.

I don't have a parts list, but when I rebuilt mine a couple years back, I documented it fairly well and this does show what parts I used.

Thanks! For posting your rebuild Kevin.
Terrific photos, I was planning on adjusting my E-brake next weekend.
I have read the procedure in Bentleys and in Waynes book, It's always good to some more insight.

The hardest part is figuring out which direction to turn the star adjusters.

That thread is pretty complete, nice work Kevin.
