Remove the tire and wheel from your 1988 Ford Ranger pickup truck. Remove the brake pads. When the brake drum is not loose you can tap on it with a hammer or mallet. Once the brake drum is loose it will slide off.
Drum brakes are meant to self adjust when applying the brake in reverse, however you can access the adjuster from the back side of the brake plate through a rubber grommet, it is hard to see but in there there is a little gear looking thing that you can manually turn with a flathead screwdriver to adjust the brake pads. If access is too difficult then you will have to remove the drum to get at it, im thinking that once you get in there you will find that it is pretty dirty which is causing the adjusters not to work, and the shoes are worn as well.
