to stop the brake drag. first you do have a littel drag, after the first 100miles it should wear in. only drive it in short trips for that 100 miles. when you take off the drum you need to back the slake ajuster off ,but you need to rotate it up and move the lock that's siting ontop of it. that should fix it.thanks a19.34ford1@Yahoo .com 'George'
