DId I do this right
Took my brakes apart months ago and just put them back together, just making sure I did it right. Did I get all the springs in the right spot and are they right.

Re: DId I do this right
So according to the link, the spring on the adjustment arm that contacts the star should be flipped over? The one on the left just above the green hold down spring...please excuse my general terminology.

Re: DId I do this right
Sorry but I think you have your shoes reversed. If we're looking at the left rear brake, the short (primary) shoe should be on the front.
Let me rephrase that. The short primary shoe should always be in the forward position. If we're looking at the left rear brake the shoes appear to be reversed.

Re: DId I do this right
It is the right front so primary shoe is forward, I will turn the one spring around, thanks.

Re: DId I do this right
Yep I can see that now, it was late. No springs or trailing arms, and obviously a front spindle instead or a rear axle flange!
