    Not sure which springs you are talking about (not looked at rear 504
    drum brakes for a while). If they are those little round ones that
    trap a securing clip that anchors in the rear of the backing plate
    your Snap-on brake pliers will have a circular end (on one of the
    handles) that you push into the keeper while you turn it 90 degrees
    to free the clip. Is that what you are talking about? Reinstall is
    the opposite.
