Dan,
Just went through this on our BN2. Couple things:
1) by "the adjusters all the way in" you mean the wedges are all the way in, or
the adjuster screw? The screw should be out/wedges in (dumb question, I know,
but had to ask).
2) the drums will be hard to replace if the shoes aren't properly set into the
wheel cylinders and pedestals and exactly centered, and the standoffs have to
be
adjusted so the shoe surfaces are 90deg to the backing plate.
Make sure the cylinders "float" properly.
