Thanks J Franklin,
During assembly I worked the service brake lever back and forth several times to confirm that the cam was expanding and contracting the shoes properly (it was). And after installing the drum I temporarily disconnected the brake rod and worked the lever again. This got excellent brake action with the lever pulled forward. But the clevis has insufficient adjustment to achieve the same result when the brake rod is re-connected. That is my problem in a nutshell.
