Default Rear drums

Why when I changed my drum breaks and go for my test ride that the rear does not rotate anymore????? I'm thinking it might just need to be adjusted but not sure. Can someone please help me.

Something was not put back correctly. Go back and adjust. The service manual has tons of pictures if you need to compare pictures. The FAQ is just a few posts above this one with a link to download the Service manual.
