Nav I would also check the Adjuster and Wedge's and get some Copper grease on these parts as they tend to stick
Been there done that. The adjusters are at their max, All my shoes are almost paper thin and the drums are rather worn. all this = not much brake performance. Not too long till its all replaced with new goodness. well except i can't afford/justify disks on NAV
Chong pulled the rear brakes off Lillee yesterday- drums had been machined oversize to +1/32", but some fool (PO or Brookvale Pirates??) had put a big steel staple thingy across the adjuster so it could wear the shoes further..
He's got a proper set of +1/32" O/S shoes to go on there now.
