Anyone had this problem??

Then you pull the cables forward, turn the clevis until the holes line up and re-insert the pin. Unless the parts inside the brake drums are not hooked up to the shoes correctly or at all.
Mine were not holding until I did that cable bit. They are not locking however and I found that the arm and rods in the cab need rebuilding. | | |
