Default Re: How to adjust the rear drum brakes

I would like to add 1 more suggestion. On the backs of the brake shoes there are tabs that rest on the backing plate of the rear end. Place a dab of brake grease on it so the shoe moves smoothly and does not cut into the backing plate.
Auto parts stores have a nice synthetic brake grease in a white and black tub I highly recommend.
Toyota dealers have small packets of it too. It is the best.
