    Hi everybody!!!!!!

    Not on my Buick hopefully!!
    But on my plymouth i have a full new brake job.

    New booster, master cylinder, wheel cylinder, caliper, pads, flexible and hardware.

    Still, when I drive, ther rear adjuster goes to far and block the read brake.
    I have to take the drum out and back up the adjuster, I then can drive for 20 miles and the problem come back.
    I did check everything with a mechanic and everything is well in place!
    What could be wrong??

    I had a similar problem with my rear brakes. The self ajuster was not in the slots that it sits in, one side was not in when it was installed. The flap that rests on the Self ajuster was laying on it wrong and causeing it to constantly self ajust. Sorry for the spelling!

    Everthingis correct with my set up. did check several time, all I have to do is to back up the adjuster.

    I couldn't see that the ajuster was out of place, because of the flap hanging down over one side of it. I know this sounds dumb, but are they facing the right direction? Just trying to weed out the possibilities.
