Default Re: Rear brake adjustment

Mac, reading your last post, I wondered if you had left the cam out of the camshaft.

But your last comment that forward movement of the lever with the hand was stopping the wheel makes me wonder if your service brake rod is connected to the cross shaft. You should not be able to operate the service brake lever by hand if both ends of the rod are hooked up properly?????

As I recall, the rear brake rod clevis is supposed to be at the cross shaft. The fixed end goes at the backing plate. Is that where you are adjusting the clevis?

How many clicks from completely backed off is your adjusting wedge?
