Brake Shoe issue

[Mattn1192]

I’m having issues fitting my rotors on my new brake shoes. I’ve adjusted them to the tightest setting and nothing. I’m using the PAGID brand (p/n: 355050471). Anyone ever have this issue before?

Did you push the caliper piston back all the way? Are the pad 'ears' fully seated?

Dumb question but parking brake lever is down, right?

Same issue on both sides?

Could parking brake cable be stuck and not releasing?

Parking brake is down. But idk man, this has been a PITA. I haven’t done the driver side yet.

I am writing this from my phone on my boat the water, so I can't see the video very clearly.

But I am pretty sure you have the shoes upside down.
In my photo's I have from when I did this I have the larger circular holes on the bottom with the expander and the big spring, and the smaller more rectangular holes at the top with the adjuster and the small spring.

Also do not forget to fully slacken the adjustment nuts under the lever in the cabin.

Hope that helps.

Yep, I've done that before.
OP, look at the other side for comparison since you haven't touched that side yet. As outlined above, look at the orientation of the square and round holes.

They’ve already been removed 😬

Is this what you’re saying?

Yes, that was what I was saying, because that is how the holes are on the genuine part, and many others.
However, it seems yours are flipped, and the holes aren't anything to go by in this case.

So as for orientation, how it was before, is correct for these shoes, so it seems.

You didn't mention before, what kind of disc are you using?
