I am going to do my rear brakes soon. I have both rubber hoses, both wheel cylinders, shoes and hardeware kit. I don't know if the drums are ok to be turned yet. What else will i need or should I replace while in there?

Rebuild the adjusters. I use a brass brush to clean everything and use a little anti seaze on the stars before reasembly. It helps to keep those things spinning easy with adjustments.
