Unbraked trailer, towing limitations
Hey folks, I’m looking for a new tow vehicle for a rig coming in at 2700 lbs, loaded, per the scale. I decided to trade down to a more modest unibody suv like the highlander, telluride or similar wit...

It is taking a bit of miles to "seat" the new brake shoes to the drums. These are auto adjust brakes, and they adjust when you back up and stop.
Drum brake shoes still need to be initially adjusted so they just barely drag on the brake drum. The brake shoes will not self adjust easily if they have insufficient contact with the drum.
My first car had drum brakes and I was DIY for everything I could.
