Brake shoe fitting urgent advice needed!!!😣
Hi folks, I'm trying to fit my shoes and I cannot fit the larger, left spring that ties them together at the expander 😢

Thanks chaps, it's the spring, it's too tight, looks the right spring in comparison but cause its new and I have a bad back etc it's too tight for me to pull it open, so I have resorted to the spring that came off and it all pulled together, thanks again, only took me 3 hours to do 1 side

would have been a bit quicker had i not forgotten to put on the spring clip on the 1st side I think i prob need some new long-nosed, mine kept losing grip and slipping off, that was the main issue... Thanks again folks, much appreciated
