Unless you plow with your truck the rear band almost never neeeds adjusment. I've said this before and some think I"m nuts but that's ok with me. The rear band is a "holding" device, it keeps an already stopped drum at rest. The front band is a "braking" device, it stops a heavy, spinning drum. That said, adjust the front band as described in the manual, it''s easy. I have overhauled a few trannies where the only toasted component was the front band.
