Thanks for the help on sunday with my (new vanagon few small proublems)

I Have 86 GL auto/air  169K "The EUROSLIDE"  Just needs a little TLC/Money.
Its only 3 months old to me. It had the brake proublem win we met.
Replaced front pads (the only thing stoping it) Rears, new shoes new wheel
cylinders. Flushed the sys. That was sunday!

Ok  I took the drums off agian (with a 1-13/16 thanks Ben) Today. the auto
adjs are in the way thay came out,  The way the manual shows. I adj  the
shoes all the way to the drums & I still have a soft brake. No leeks around
the master cylinder.
The rears just aint grabing.

GUYS its not my the first brake job. I called it a bad bad name, its are
first fight.
