Getting the brakes to work properly and well normally involves a lot more than adjusting them. That’s a good place to start, but after that you need to systematically inspect the entire system and repair, replace, or adjust as necessary. Worn tracks, linings, and drums may need to be replaced, but also all the brake rods and associated parts need to be checked for wear and proper fit. After everything else is done the shoes then need to be accurately centered to the drums. Properly restored mechanical brakes work really well, but all components need to be working correctly.
