front drum brakes

Many replacement shoes are oversize. If you can determine for certain that the adjusters are actually all the way retracted, and that the cylinders are relieved of pressure, you'll either have to turn the drums a bit more, or have the shoes "arced." "Shoe arcing machine." Good luck finding one, or even someone who knows what they are, LOL


Wouldn't it be easier to put them on a drum "stretcher"?


They have them at Harbor Freight next to the muffler bearing presses....
