10 in drums

Same deal on my 65 Dart w/ 10" drums. With new shoes and new hardware kit, the old drums would just barely slide on. I might have used the old adjusters which were slightly shorter (forgot). I suggest sliding the drums on and pushing the pedal real hard (engine running if a booster). That might seat the shoes at the top more. If not, drive it a 1/2 mile or so using the brakes to help seat the shoes. If it still binds, file the metal on the shoe contact points as suggested.
