I think I have new shoes, new drums & good adjusters in the shed

Thanks British trident, I'm all sorted now, my drums are good if a little rusty, the shoes would have been good but they have been laid up since 93 so i figured id replace thrm and I've already refurb end the adjusters and fitted new wheel cylinders.
