Has anyone experienced the following problem on the front brakes
Once the brake shoes are adjusted to be parallel to the drum with the steady
post, the pin which should rest against the cam adjuster is too short and
the cam adjuster just does not put the shoe close to the drum.
The result of this is that to brake, you have to push the pedal twice in
order to pump up the cylinders..

The question is: do I have the shoes with pins that are too short or am I
doing something wrong?...

Best, Tadek
