LS1 Rear Question

Hey all, will finally be doing my drum-LS1 rear upgrade on my 91RS this weekend. My only probelm is that before I start, I need to make sure that I have everything, otherwise I wont be able to go get what I need (no other vehicle and running on borrowed time/place)... So let me run through what I have and if someone sees something I am missing, please let me know.

-LS1 backing plates with 4 mounting bolts
-LS1 parking brake cables with brackets
-parking brake shoes
-hardware for the parking brake that attaches to the backing plate
-rotors
-LS1 calipers with mounting hardware and clips
-Brake pads
-gallon of gear oil (no additive/synthetic because open rear)

Will I need to replace the bearings after I pull the axles? If so, which ones are the ones to get?

Yea, that is for the parking brake at the front, it welds to the underside of the car to hold the front of the cable
