TheDon may very well be correct, but you won't know until you pull the drums.

Drum brake work is not as quick and simple as discs but as long as you have a pair of brake spring pliers and the retainer spring tool it's not bad. In the old days the problem was the mess. Since the widespread availability of brake cleaner this is much easier and safer. Pull the drum and just spray it all down top to bottom and let all that crap fall down onto a few layers of newspaper and you're ready to go to work without fear of mesothelioma and a much cleaner job.

The people who do not put the self adjusters back on are screwing up badly IMHO. Put the adjusters back on and lube the rub points with white grease. Then when you back out of the driveway or parking space bring it to a moderately hard stop and let the vehicle then rock forward. Do this and they will stay adjusted.

Also a good brake shop after completely finished should ALWAYS be tested by sitting in the drivers seat with both hands on the steering wheel and both feet on the brake pedal if possible then stand on that pedal with all your might! If anything is going to blow that is where you want it to happen, NOT on the road.
