Re: Issues with rear brakes

Ok

3 is hitting backing plate, either wrong drum or axles too short

edge of shoe is hitting inside of drum at 1, and shoe was ground at 1. either shoes too wide or axles too short

on the inside of the drum at 1 is it rubbing all around or just at places?
Just in places then the casting may be imperfect and need truing up perpendicular to the friction surface.

is point 2 I labeled on the shoe rubbing point 2 on drum??
that would be a very worn out shoe or a shoe badly matched to the application and probably the adjuster cranked out to compensate. Does the shoe friction surface show wear over the entire shoe?

What is the evidence the drum is out of round?
