I actually found a video by 1aauto.com that covered the shoes for a chevy venture van and the brakes were exactly the same as the malibu. Good job chevy! It's actually the 3rd or 4th video from 1aauto.com I've used, very useful place for domestic stuff.

Anyways it took me about an hour to figure out the passenger side and then 15 minutes for the driver side. The shoes are adjusted so that the drum doesn't have play and spins with some resistance. Brake lines are reattached and now I just need to bleed the brake system. I wish I had a power bleeder at this point but my room mate is home to do it the old school way.
