I looked in the Haynes manual and it doesn't mention any special steps for the Civic with rear drum ABS.
Thank You LT4, this is good to know!

They look like a photo shot of IRAQ after Desert Storm.
Since the car has rear drum brakes, remember to adjust the rear drum brakes to ensure balanced braking.
Will Do! I like to keep rear drums adjusted on a regular basis(on my cars that have them). Right now, only my older Firebird FORMULA has rear drum brakes.
