Ranger had a low brake pedal....ended up removing the drums and manually adjusting the screws about 3/16" on each drum....

It looks like the shoes still have about 20,000 more miles on them

not that it really matters? just asking?
I ain't looked at a drum brake system in awhile

Now you've known me long enough to know the answer:

That'd be waaaaaay too easy just sticking a tool in the backing plate to adjust the screw....

besides.....I wanted to take a look at the shoes to see how much liner was left....

(I'm still working up the energy to flush the A/C components/install the new electric fans/the new dryer and the new compressor)
