Brake Rub
Brake Rub
Well, I had my car up on jackstands a couple weeks ago to install my LED kit, and both rear brake drums were rubbing during half the rotation of the wheels, like they were mis-calibrated. Is this normal, or should I be going to the dealer for warranty work?

I still have this problem, on one wheel its getting pretty bad, but the other one seems to have gotten a little bit better. The manual says something about self-adjusting brake, and to "adjust" the rear brakes, it says to drive in reverse and hit the brakes pretty damn hard to reseat the brakes, should I try it?
That's generally how you would get them to tighten more, I'd pull the drums and give the adjusting star shaped bolt thing a turn or 2 in whichever direction would make it shorter.
