Hey, Dan...
<snip> did you do the automatic adjuster tightening process? ya know.
back, then stop, then
forward, then stop, then back. do it 10 times and come to a complete
stop each time<snip>
Not yet...She seems to be stopping fine, tho...I adjusted the way I was
taught,
tighten the adjuster screw until you can just "feel" the shoes drag when
manually spinning the wheel - WITH the tire on...
altho it's a rough calibration, I've done it this way since my FIRST brake
job back in 68!
THAT was on my first car! - 61 Corvair...
Guess that makes me kinda OLD, huh...
