Used to arc brake shoes many years ago. Essentially it matches the arc of the shoe to the arc of the drum. If you can't find anyplace to do it ( check for HD truck shops), good used shoes would be an option (they have worn to fit the drums). Also, your brake drums may have been turned too much, check them against std diameter.
