67 c10 rear drums loose

Hi on my c10 when I go to put the rear drums on the drum is very loose on the shoes. When I adjust the adjuster out enough for it to be snug the strut bar falls out because it is so loose. Any ideas?

Re: 67 c10 rear drums loose

Is this happening with or without the axle installed?

I don't see the piece in John's photo (Member #16. Thanks for the photo.) that the arrow is pointing to in the first photo in your photos. But maybe it's hidden.

Not sure what is going on here. In pic #2 of the original post, the adjuster lever is on the wrong side of the vehicle, and can't possibly be correct anyway, as the ridge on that lever wouldn't contact the adjuster wheel, anyway. Also, it would appear that the front and rear shoes are reversed, based on where the park brake cable comes through the backing plate. Also, what happened to that cable? There are other parts missing, like the park brake lever.

Re: 67 c10 rear drums loose

That cross Lever does not go between the shoes. There should be a lever connected to the rear shoe that swings down. The cross lever hooks into that lever & the slot on the other end goes to the front shoe.
You have a mismatch & missing parts. You need to get a manual with some good pictures & directions or get someone that has done these before to help you.
