Re: Brake shoes and drum
Hi Riverside,
There is an adjuster under the drop-link part of the handbrake lever, a little way behind it on the long pull-rod going to the axle. This is where one takes up small amounts of wear, when the caravan's in use. Release this, & providing your linkage isn't seized there will now be plenty of clearance to refit the drums.
