Are you sure you got the adjuster screws back in right. They have an
angle in the slot that matches the angle on that end of the shoe. This
is an easy mistake to make.
Is the e-brake spreader bar back in right? Are all the springs installed
properly.
If you didn't have the other side apart, pull that drum and use it for a
pattern.
