Re: Drum brakes

[Akrondon <dongallimore@xxxxxxx>]

I'll throw in my 2 cents. Look at the top of the brakes and make sure the shoes are against the post. If they are and the adjuster is all the way in, I'm thinking either the drum or the brake shoes are not the right size. Remeasure. (The shoes aren't cocked on the plate, are they?)

Just completed installing new rear brake shoes and springs on my 64’ Sport Fury. The problem is the drums won’t go back on. I have one half way on all 360 degrees, and the other, not at all. The shoes are touching the pin on top. If I take the adjuster off they fit fine. Could I shave something off the adjusters?  Help!!

Thx
