Expert Reply:
The brakes that are included with the Dexter axles will need to be adjusted when you install the axles.
To adjust the brakes you can use a small screwdriver or a tool like part # W80630 to turn the adjustment wheel. The wheel pushes out the shoes. You will keep turning the wheel until the pads lightly, but consistently, drag on the drum.
