I'm just about to do this on my wifes '96. This is what I have so far.

1) Read the manual (chiltons, service manual, ect).
2) Make sure you have the tools in the manual (ie, retainer spring tool)
3) Do both sides. If it's been a while you might want to replace the shoes AND the drums.
4) Buy the hardware kit. This way you don't have to make an extra trip if you need spring or something.

5) do one side at a time for reference.
6) remove both wheels.
7) lightly tap drums and pull them off.
8) use spring retainer removal tool to twist 90 degrees and off to remove shoe.
