get a chiltons guide or similar for your truck... it should have directions for the rear drum brakes. I did em on my explorer and the main thing I have to say is lift up both back tires, pull both tires off, pull both drums off then do one side and get it reassembled, then do the other side, that way you can use the still assembled side to compare when you cant figure out how to get something back in how it was.
I was able to do the drums on my explorer with no special tools other then a couple vice grips to grab the springs... make sure when removing or replacing the springs to stretch them into place, not bend the ends...
that pin was probably the caliper slide pin, just go to autozone or wherever and ask them for one, or a whole set if the other ones look messed up.
