 Rear brake adjuster Hi All
I had a fair amount of travel on the brake pedal, so though I would adjust the rear brakes.
Near side appears to have adjusted up, but the off side adjuster nuts are just going round and round. What have I sheared. Minimum budget I'm sorry to say. I working in the road and cant really have the car out of commission for to long.
Do the cams part from the bolt, or can the shoes be so worn that the cam loses contact with it?
Advice appreciated.
Roger V

Re: Rear brake adjuster Daras Rich sells replacement brake adjusters.
He has a web site. retrospecparts.com I think.

Re: Rear brake adjuster You can put a spot of welding on cams in the inside of the brakes. If they are not to used.
