Re: normal brake noise?
Thx for the info. I do recall the washers falling out, but I put them back in place when I installed the adjuster....at least I'm pretty sure I did :-)
The thing that I can't figure out is why did the damaged shoes/drums get like you can see in the pic before I replaced the drum/shoes. The only thing that makes sense to me is if the axle/seal was mis-aligned in a manner that would cause the drum to rotate in a non-circular manner.
When I think about it I guess that a brake adjuster that pushes the bottom of the shoes out too far could also cause the problem.
I guess my question is, what would cause the wear to the shoes/drum as shown in the pic before I "fixed" them.
