Default 88>97 rear drum interchangable?

k so im heading on a road trip tomorrow and im having some brake issue and was wondering if anyone knows if the rear drums off a 97 dx would fit in to a 88 dx (civics)

if not would at minimum the rear cylinders in the drums fit/swap

reason is the pads are gone and i need a quick fit and on the passenger side drum the rubber boots on the cylinder have little holes in them and it seems to keep leaking brake fluid from these holes everytime i hit the brake. help on this would be great thnx guys

sooo the rear brake shoes are worn out and you have a leaky wheel cylinder? replace the wheel cylinder and brake shoes! like 30 bucks in parts. yeah the drum should fit
