To begin with, star wheel is loose...
I just did my brakes (one side so far) and the drum wont fit back on. The adjuster is loose, theres play in it between the shoes so it is not expanding them. All the springs are on and it seems pretty solid. If I grab hold of the shoes on both sides there is a little bit of movement, I can slide the whole thing a little bit. But I can't push the shoes together anymore, so I dont know how to make it "smaller" so the drum will fit over?
Does it matter what order it was reassembled? That would be the only thing I can think of. I followed a few different write-ups and the procedure order varied. The completed assembly looks exactly like the other side.
One more thing, I had my brake line disconnected (axle swap) so when I push the brake pedal, nothing happens (except sucking noise at master cylinder) since I need to bleed the brakes too. Too much air in the lines now I guess?
