Default Re: 40 Ford brakes

I agree with those that suggest the brake shop isn't familiar with the 4 adjusters per wheel used on the 40 Ford. Most of the repairmen that worked on these have retired. There are a number of V-8ers who switched to the later backing plates, because they didn't fully understand how to adjust the lower anchors properly. The suggestion to look at the actuating linkage at the master cylinder is also a good one.
