OK, so I have adjusted the rear brake shoes probably about a half a dozen times now and after a driver too, I get the same result every time where when I press on the brake pedal, it sounds like a clapping sound is coming from the rear brake drum I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong with it but it’s getting very annoying and if you can give me any pointers or assistance it would be greatly appreciated.
