I replaced literally the entire rear brake system, minus the lines. Wheel cylinders, springs, pins, drums, shoes, and self adjusting assembly. I had to have both drums machined because of the new shoes being so thick, the drums wouldnt slide over them.
The one side is functioning fine, but I noticed when replacing the old shocks in the rear, that the rear passenger side is rusting on the inside of the drum, as well as the shoes, demonstrating a malfunction of sorts.
I checked the line to make sure it was snug at the wheel cylinder, I made sure the 'hooks' on the shoes were pushing into the pistons. I checked the line for leaks and found none.
Any thoughts?
