Tires and Wheels problem
2000 Lincoln Navigator Two Wheel Drive Automatic 134000 miles

Is there a specific alignment or way that the drum is placed after inserting the bearings?

Hi there,

If you are having trouble re fitting a brake drum, check that the shoes are not mis aligned, and that the hand brake is fully off, back off the brake adjuster and fit the drum, then re adjust the brakes, if its just a general question, then there is no special alignment for a brake drum, unless it has a locking screw or a brake adjusting access hole.
