man im glad you made this video man, that other video someone else did sucked. kuddos to you, great job dude. i need to readjust my brakes again, pedal goes down bunch nearly to the floor. super simple to do tbh nothing over complicated, hardest part is getting t he wheels off
If you can get the drum off I would recommend drilling and tapping it in 4 places 5/16-18 just like the import/compact cars are to screw in bolts to jack the drum off. Yes my mind strayed into the gutter typing that. But having a dirty mind makes for more interesting conversations.
Great video definitely good info gonna come in hand in the next few weeks. I do have a “low” pedal. Good brakes just alittle low for my taste. What tires are you run???? Looking to get something with alittle more grip then the military non-directionals lol
After seeing this video I know mine definitely need a minor adjustment. Whats the best way to jack these beasts up and where are the best places for the jack stands? Thanks!
There are two large 1,1/8" nuts on the bottom of the backing plates. Those are jam nuts for the eccentric cams that the lower ends of the shoes mount to. Break them loose and use a 5/8" wrench to turn the studs inside those big jam nuts.
video not that long but maybe not as exciting as hiting ur brakes and having them go to the floor.Thanks for the demo simple and valuable! For most It's all about the skinny peddle till U hit the wide 1 and it doesn't work that's when a deuce seems like a speeding bullet!
I opted to hit a jeep Cherokee on the trail instead of a group of atvs. On the plus side the Cherokee was already missing windows and crinkled up. The guy just said it really didn't need any more character. I gave him one that I had behind my garage that needed a drivetrain. Made him happy.(er)
Thank you for this video. Looking forward to "M35A2 (major) brake adjustment procedure". 🙂
You are not boring I appreciate the information and technical experience

We can be friends.
@@tacticalrepair my wife said that she couldn't get my mind out of the gutter with a tow truck.

Great timing on the video! I’m getting ready to do my minor adjustments too. That was like a refresher course!
Any plans to do a video on a major brake adjustment? Adjusting the bottom as well. Love the Chanel great info.
Someday when I come back to the states, sure. No idea when that'll be though.
@@tacticalrepair thanks. Had no idea you were out of the country. Good luck.
Very helpful. Thanks!
Great video buddy
Great video Bro I really appreciate it!
Could you make one on how to adjust the 5 ton air brake trucks.
Sure, someday. I've been living in South Korea for almost three years now with no clear plan on when to come home though.

I use a 3.5 ton floor jack under the drain plug on each axle and just ut the stands under the tubes wherever you can fit them.
If the lower end of the breaks are to far from the hub how do I adjust them
