10" drum auto adjusters?
OK I don't see much wrong other than arrangement at upper post.
T washer goes on first, then the cable with flat side to washer. Then the cable guide has a little neck that needs to stay in the hole while spring is attached holding it there. Finally the other upper return spring.
If the cable guide wasn't in the hole the adjust paw would sit too low.
To check threads and orientation rotate the adjust from bottom up just as the paw should turn it. The adjuster should get longer.
