are you sure that you have the correct shoes and the drums have not been turned beond the max id stamped on the drum?

the numbers I have say the drums should be discarded at 11.060 and mine are at 10.99 and 11.01. So they dont have another turning on them, but they are within spec.

As for the shoes I have to presume they are correct at this point. I will take a pic and compare to some found on the board.

The strut was too short before any parts were replaced and the e-brake was never hooked up.

Thanks.
