Default brake parts

i was in the process of changing out brake shoes on my fathers 2001 pds. the shoes they gave him are little bit bigger. adjusted screw all the way in and they still dont seem to fit. also got a new cable and drivers side cable is much shorter and passenger side is longer than the old. do i have the wrong part? could they have given me parts for older cart?

Disconnect the cable and then put the drum on.... does it fit?

Driver's side cable 37.5 inches long
Pass side cable 47.5 inches long

Hope this helps

I would love to have your problem. Now to get the passenger side to grab equally!

Ezgo? Brakes grabbing? There has got to be a problem.... they are not overly effective, generally speaking.
