Question about Tools for Drum Brakes, or to those who have Serviced Drum Brakes?

I was just curious for those of you who have worked on drum brakes before or have done your civic's drum brakes, what tools would you recommend using to do the job of replacing the rear shoes? I have heard from several people that there are a few special tools needed to do the job, but I was just trying to get some input from other people.

Bmkarr is an unknown quantity at this point
ive used a tool called spring pullers or somethin like that all it basically does is make the spings come off easier. thats about it i think... its been a while. now that you mention it i should prob do mine soon.
