Brake adjustment.....
I can't remember if there is a way to adjust the front brakes on our trucks other than with the dial. I thought you could back up and apply the brakes...or is that only for the rear?
oopps!! I'm talking about the front brakes and they are drums.

Re: Brake adjustment.....
They should be self adjusting, Houp; assuming everything is in there & in working order.

Re: Brake adjustment.....
They will adjust backing up but it's slow if they need much.The auto adjusters were really designed for minor wear adjustment.
