Re: Rear brakes
it could be problems with the brake rod and service brake cross shaft set up . In other words if the rear brake levers aren't being pulled all the way, you won't be getting full activation . As for the rear adjustment wedges , The square end needs to be backed out as far as it will go , when installing the brake drums . After the drums are installed , the square end of the adjustment wedges will need to be screwed-turned inward until brake drag can be felt . Then back off as needed to remove excess drag . I would make these adjustments with the service rods disconnected at the rear brake levers. You only need to remove the brake rod clevis pin. . You can check your work by pulling forward on the rear brake lever . If you can get this far , come back and we can get into brake rod and shaft setup .
