Drum Brake Adjustment.

Drum Brake Adjustment.
Well I replaced the driver side wheel cylinder in the brake drum since it was leaking. I will be replacing the other side but right know I have a problem. When I have to brake moderately the driver side reaer tire skids, sometimes for a while other times ABS kicks in. You can definitely fell the truck pull left. I think* that this drum is too tight but we didnt mess with the adjustment.
I have heard that when you back up and brake, the rear drums self adjust. I have tried this now 20 times with varying speed but no luck. Should I manually adjust them or could the poblem be something else?

My uncle just recently experienced this kind of issue on his brake drum after he had replaced them. Right now he is kinda confused if he should manually adjust it or something else is wrong with it. Lucky to find this thread, I think this would really help my uncle with his problem. I'm gonna let my uncle know about this so he could try out it. Anyway, thanks for sharing it.
