Rear brake adjustment is real easy - they adjust themselves automatically. Find
a large, EMPTY parking lot, put the truck in reverse, and start rolling. Get up
to about 10MPH and then get on the brakes kind of hard. Your front brakes may
lock, so be careful. Do it a second time just to make sure and your rear brakes
are now adjusted.
