You'll get many opinions. For later brakes :
1. Service Bulletins state to raise all wheels (axle supports) and turn adjusters.
2. Some owners say that raising rear wheels will make the rear rods too tight.(I've tried both methods, elevated on axles with wheels barely off ground,etc. and found no appreciable difference in rod freeplay takeup.) Adjust rod clevis freeplay with wheels on level surface seems to work well. The fronts like to be at the 15 degrees from vertical and pills may be needed at brake pin bottom but make sure the pin is also the correct length and stays firmly in the lower wedge. Sometimes the rollers don't roll and bind on the wedge.
3. Different seat arrangements require different pedal board lengths; the boards are helpful and easy to make.
4.After adjustments made, drive car, pull to roadside and feel drums or use temp. gun. to adjust uneven braking. Readjust 1 notch to start or as needed and test temps again.
May need to do this a couple of times.
