adjusting rear drums
#3
Dont need to remove drum. And you won't get the right adjustment either. Always a little lip on the drum etc

Slacken off handbrake. 12/13mm deep socket.

Remove wheel.

Torch and little screwdriver.

Spin drum till you locate the adjuster through a wheel bolt hole.

Get someone to put foot hard on brake.

You will notice a gap between adjuster wheel and its stop (threads be obvious)

Turn the wheel till theres no gap.

Do it for both sides.

Then take up slack on handbrake cables inside.

:-)
Wishes for more power...
