The brake shoes can be adjusted. Remove the rear wheels and you'll find a rubber grommet on the face of the drum part of the rotor. Spin the rotor until the rubber grommet is at either 12 or 6 o'clock (can't remember 100%). Remove the grommet and you should see the adjuster. Rotate it in an upward direction to tighten (I believe). Be cautious not to tighten too much or else the shoes will drag while driving. Hopefully my memory is correct!
Good luck.
