After my front brake pad/rotor replacement, I was greeted with a grinding at the rear end at slow speeds (~15-35mph) which goes away at faster speeds. I took off the drum on the driver side and found the adjusting screw assembly head was bent but otherwise the rest of the components were in good shape. I did have to hammer off the drum which broke off a few pieces of it so a new drum is coming in. So I'll need those two parts. I didn't have the time to take off the passenger side drum because of time constraints but expect to need to beat the drum off, probably damaging it and getting a new one.
Assuming the internals on the passenger side are alright and once I get the new stuff installed, is adjustment putting it on jackstands, chocked, in neutral, and spinning the wheel and making the adjustment until there is a slight bit of drag on the wheel while turning it?
Thanks in advance.
