Rear drum brakes?????

How do I tell which rear I have? A few years ago I took my old 69 c20 to midas for a brake job, and the estimate was over $1000! it needed front and rear drums, master cyl, everything..... I have slowly redone all but the rear brakes, now I need to know which drums I need.....I was reading in another thread that some drums are not even available anymore, how do I know if those are the ones I need? I think it is a corporate 14 bolt rear, but are there more than one of those? What is an Eaton rear? I tried looking it up on Colorado K5, but they don't mention Eaton. thanks!

Re: Rear drum brakes?????

first, we need to determine what you have.
What does the rear look like? Is the cover perfectly round like a salad bowl?
