new drum brake problem!!
thanks to the help of people on this forum and a Haynes manual, I was able to get the brake shoes and springs back together on my 98 durango 5.2L V8 magnum. when I put the drums on, they did not fit. I have looked into every avenue as to why they did not fit. adjustment wheel is all the way in, pads are on in the right configuration, etc. is there any reason on god's green earth why my brand new drums won't fit over the newly installed shoes? has anyone else experienced the same problem? HELP ME PLEASE!!

Those were the old ones before I took them off. The one wheel cylinder leaked and got brake fluid on the shoes (made them grab as soon as they touched the drum and try to lock the wheel up), so I had to change all the shoes. New ones didn't have any inward adjustment left when I put them on.
