  1. Does toeing in brake shoes require forcibly bending metal?

    I have a bad feeling that if I try it I'll break something.

    All I've got for such a job is a 10-inch crescent wrench.

    Is there a better tool? Is there a way to toe in brake shoes without
    having to bend something permanently?

  2. Have you tried cleaning the rims? Have you tried roughing up the pads with
    steel wool or a fingernail file? Sometimes the cause is dirt or glazed brake
    pads and not the toeing-in.
