thanks for the help.
when I mounted them, I did just that. I tightened the adjusters till the drum started dragging on both sides...

I am taking the wheels and drums of 2nite to see if they are wearing evenly and to check if the cilinders come out evenly and equally far...
hope I find something, I'll report back here.

thanks sofar!
