Use small screwdriver (or welding wire)to push adjusting lever off star wheel. Apply adjuster tool to star wheel and move the tool down to loosen brakes. IE: Toward ground to loosen brakes. Toward sky to tighten brakes.

This is for a 69 Dart.. 9 inch drums is what you have. http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1969/69_Dart0017.jpg

Just in case you forget how everything is supposed to go back together.. Been there , done that, have the T-Shirt and the hat !

Might add shoes and wheel cylinders to the shopping list, just in case.

Spray some light lube around the piston, use a C-Clamp to push the piston back into the caliper just a bit and try again. If air pressure fails to move it, connect it back into the brake system and use light hyd. pressure. Very light application of pedal.

Front axle shoes are 2.5 inches. Rear axle shoes are 2.0 inches. And that is the correct drum. http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1972/72_Dodge_Dart_Demon0013.jpg

The 11.75 Diplomat rotors require 15 inch rims.Just wanted to make sure you were aware of that fact.

Have you made sure the outer pad flanges are tight against the cailiper? If the flange is not rubbing against the caliper, it will let the pad rattle around,esp when you hit a bump.

In other words, the short (primary) shoe is alway put on the front (of the car) side.

Move tool up (outside of star wheel goes down) to tighten shoe adjustment. The only stupid question (other than am I ugly) is one that is NOT asked.

Simple..... Slant 6...9 inch V8.......10 inch http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1971/71_Dart_Demon0012.jpg

Try taking the M/C to Prop valve line loose and see if you get fluid out of it.

If 12" drums will fit like on my dad's 68 Coronet, 10's will be no sweat.

I do believe the van has a 5x 5.5 inch bolt pattern so you can't use the disc.

Hope this helps!! This is a 73 Dart, just like UnknownSnakes car. Short brace attaches to the inner fender. Long one to the firewall

Is it just one brake or one end of the car or both ends that is/are dragging. If it is just one front brake, it sounds like a caliper that is not retracting all the way and neeeds to be rebuilt.

The data tag is attached to the driver side inner fender just to the rear of the battery. You read them bottom line 1st and then go up one line and then the next Post yours and we can figure it out really quick.

Check your data tag. If it shows B43, it was ordered with disc.. If B41 shows, it will be power disc http://www.hamtramck-historical.com/images/dealerships/DealershipDataBook/1973/73_Dart0019.jpg They used SBP drum front brakes all the way up to Jan.1, 1976...

Badsport and BoutTime, If you have LBP front and SBP on the rear, somebody has put 73 and newer disc brakes on your car. Check your data tag.. B43 is disc brakes B41 is power assist On 73 and newer A-Bodies......... Drum brakes were the standard set-up on Slant 6. You got a 5x4 inch...

Yep, 1976 was the only year for them.. Left column

Either somebody swapped in the entire rear end or just the brakes and the backing plates from a B-Body.

67 and 68 are the same used on drum and disk Midland-Ross # 2881536 69 and 70 are the same used on drum and disc Midland-Ross #2944006
