i recently had the hydraulic rear brake shoes off of my '41 and had to readjust them after re-assembly, and to be honest the lower adjustment were a real PITA and i didn't notice much difference one way or the other. i simply set the lower so as to permit the drum to turn. it was a hassle dealing with the adjustment mechanism and eventually i had had enough and so did most of the adjusting using the upper eccentric adjusters.
if you never hear from me again, assume this is bad advice.
