Juist take your wheels off take the huds off there they are held together by 2 springs.POP them off put the springs on your new shoes like they came off snap them on put on huds and wheels adjust the cable (dont forget to run ALL the adjustment back in to get the huds off) you may need to tap the hubs over the new shoes.I just did front and rear today it took about an hr.Learn how to do this because a Breezr eats brakes up but other than that they are A GREAT little quad!!!!

Thanks ftwflh,
I did as you said, but hub seems to be stuck in place. Do I need a gear puller to remove the hub, or is there another way?
Thanks again, Ruffy.

be sure the adjusters are run all the way in and you may need to take a block of wood and a hammer and tap the hub on.

If you you want to make the breeze a little smoother get a cr80 shock for the rear.

Thanks for the info. Do I have to make any alterations or will the shock fit existing mount?

I have never personally done it, but I heard it was a minor fab to the upper mount. I read it on this forum. I think it was in the "other atvs".

Yes I was the one who did the Breeze rear shock and it made a world of difference.

Now for your rear drum, if you cant seem to get them off they may be worn down to the metal and the hubs may need resurfacing at a local brake shop.

As for adjusting the brakes all the way in I would actually pull the cable out from the brake lever to make sure you have enough slack in it. If that still dont come off they may also be rusted on at the axle. Try some WD-40
