2 when I got my sj it had no rear shoes in if I remember right so I bought some and fitted them but must of bin the wrong ones cos I couldn't get the drum back on it was that tite with no adjustment on had a few people look and said that sumits wrong , so r these the wrong cylinders for a c reg or just the wrong shoes thanks any info will help

Have the Pistons alway been that far out? And there should be some pins that go through the back plate and the shoes

The self adjuster looks like its on the max. If that's the case, your never get the drum on..

Undo the bleed nipple and squeeze them in, then just nip it back up again. That's what I do if they won't go in. As Darrell said wind the adjuster back as well

As the adjuster is on the max and you say the cylinders are fully compressed, I'd have to go with wrong cylinders. Unfortunately there are quite a few to choose from on the 410.
Info below I saved from brakesinternational and so is a few years old and no doubt the prices are incorrect.
