Default Re: emergency brake adjustment

Quote:
From the Service bulletins (page 265). Adjusting Emergency Brakes: 1) Fully release the brake lever. 2) Remove rod A-2853 that connects the emergency brake lever to the cross shaft center lever. (Figure 530), 3) Next replace the rod inserting through hole "B" in the center cross member and connecting the rod to the cross shaft center lever through UPPER hole "C" in lever. "Never adjust for wear by shortening the pull rods."
That's all fine and dandy but our '31 doesn't have hole "B" in the center cross member nor does it have the UPPER hole "C" in lever.
The only adjustment possible is at the clevise's on the e brake pull rods as Mitch and johnbuckley explained.
