Perhaps the shoe adjuster with the stepped end has been fitted the wrong way around?

If the shoe adjuster is fitted wrong way round would that not make getting drum hard to get back on over the shoes plus the handbrake seems to work ok when you pull handle

Check your shoes are sitting in the slave piston slots correctly.
Easily done if slots are not sitting vertically or have moved slightly on reassembly.

It all turns ok until you tighten the wheel spacer bolts then goes very stiff I definitely put the bearing on correct with spacer part to the outside so cant be that I'll have to have an other look at the adjuster arm end never had this problem last time
