When I put the parking brake on I can’t move the drum at all.
When I put a pole against the brakes I can forcibly turn the drum but not too much.
I drove it and it seemed to be braking fine.
I adjusted the nut so that the drum would only just slip on and just about move freely.
However it’s set with the adjuster bar much shorter than when I took it off although obviously there is more brake pad now?
I’ve uploaded a picture.
I didn’t notice until just now but I think I might have that too spring hooked onto the wrong point?
If so do I just undo the bottom left 2
Then resit the top spring and the bottom left 2 again.
Then readjust the adjuster nut and all good?
Sorry this is new territory to me and I just want to make sure I have done it safely
