I can't be sure, but I'd think it has something to do with the LS rear wheel being different from the standard R65 wheel.

The LS brake shoes are different than a standard R65, the rear drum on the LS is a larger diameter than a standard R65. Sue had this problem about 2 years ago, maybe she will stop by and give the whole story.
