Re: '88 Grand Wagon brake job

So I just completed my first brake job! I think I solved the problem of the

tight drums by loosening the cap to the brake resevoir (thanks Mike) and 
pu****ng the shoes in by hand. I was then able to slide the drums on with a

little drag. I got the wheels on and drove it three or four times backward

and forward then hitting the brakes hard. Then I took it for a spin. The 
pedal feels right, and the force it takes to brake feels right. The brakes

don't make any scraping sounds and they don't squeel anymore. On a slight 
grade, in neutral, the car will roll freely. Even though I did not
re-adjust 
anything after I got it back together, I think I'm good to go. I was able
to 
complete the second side in under thirty minutes since I learned from the 
first side. I wish I had tried this when I was in my twenties (30 years
ago) 
as I could have saved a lot of money over the years. Thanks to all who 
helped.
