Re: i need some questions answered asap

Bleed brakes, make sure the teeth on the brake self adjusters are in good shape and not rounded off, adjust them so that the shoes are close to the drums but still allow you to install the drums, check all 3 rubber brake hoses for hardness, splits, cracks or balooning. Make sure master cylinder and all four wheels cylinders are not leaking any fluid. Make sure brake shoes don't have any brake fluid or grease on the face of the friction material. Make sure that the small pads on the backing plate that the shoes ride on are not grooved and are greased lightly to allow the shoes to move freely without catching and/or popping in and out.
