4. If the shoe is binding just ease it back enough to clear.

5. Once both hubs are done, adjust the nut so the handbrake is starting to work at the first click.

2 & 3 might need to be repeated a couple of times, before moving onto 4.
Perhaps you would like to try your method on my car,obviously i would be doing the task under your supervision
