Putting Together A New 8.75 Rear Drum Setup

Okay, I couldn't really find a good singular source of information on this subject, so I decided to start a new thread. I've got an a-body 8.75 rear with big bolt pattern axles, 10" backing plates, and I need to assemble a complete rear brake system before swapping this axle in place of my present 7.25 unit. I'm new to brakes, and so I'm unclear about what all parts I need for system assembly and where to get them. It's my understanding that since I have the big bolt pattern that later '73-and-up a-body brakes should work, but I'm not sure. Basically, I'm looking for the info on what parts off of what year cars I would need to build myself a complete new rear brake system.
