I just did the same on my car did the brake hardware kit and shoes...the drums did NOT want to go back on over the shoes...they were hitting in 2 places...i ended up taping them on with a hammer...and they were tight!! i just drove it until they wore down a bit!!

did you adjust the little adjuster at the bottom to make it all the way small?
