Default Re: brake adjustment

The method I use after doing a brake job is to use a temperature gun. I drive the car and apply and hold the brakes slightly. Then pull over and take the temperature of the drums. I back off the hottest one(s) and turn in the cooler one(s). Then drive some more applying the brakes and repeat the temperature measurement. When all four are close to the same temperature, the brakes work great with no pulling to either side.
