Perhaps the brake shoe assembly is not centered on the backing plate?
Another possibility is that you did not push the wheel cylinder's pistons in
before connecting it to the brake line. This could cause a "hydraulic lock"
preventing the shoes from coming back to a full return position. If you
suspect this might be the case, try opening the bleeder valve to see if the
return springs pull the shoes inward.
