Can't fit rear brake in drum after fitting news brake shoes

<< < (6/6)

peterengland:
I had the same problem with my 550 rear shoes, filed a bit off the ends and sanded shoes a bit and inside rear hub to get them to fit and no problems since.

taysidedragon:
I agree with all the comments about the friction material.  If that is not the problem it could be that the new brake cam is too wide and is holding the brake shoes too far apart.
