help-drum brake confusion

Featured Replies

Well I am finally putting this car back together after several months and I am a little confused with the rear brakes. Please look at my pics and tell me what I am doing wrong. This is the passenger side of a 71 . I thought the rear shoe slid between the emergency brake lever and the whell cylinder but it hits against the adjuster lever. What am I doing wrong here? I wish I had a memory:stupid:
