I take it being a 1925, you are still on 6 inch brake.

The main problem with these is the return springs.

They are fitted on one side of the shoe.

so the wear on the flat of the shoe against the cam is lop sidded.

The result is the shoe/linning is no longer parrallel with the surface of the drum.

Your problem may be fitting new shoes, tipped on one side. Is lifting the linning angled to the drum. Hence it make the brake tight.

If that makes sense???

Tony.
