Drum Brake wont spring back..

[Tj Gonz]

Hi I have a 82 kz750 twin and am hooking everything back up but I cant get the brake pedal to spring back up. Im almost 100% sure its all hooked up right. Anyone know the exact order of everything or have pics of your own?
Thanks so much!

Hi this should be a nice easy fix, it sounds like the cam that moves the drum shoes is stuck, check that it is free of salt and muck and is lubed up nicely, that'll get it springing back ok.
If this is ok then you may want to check how much you have left on the shoes as it'll have to much movement and the cam will go past the point/angle off return and will stay sitting open. Hope this helps you in some way.
