on a 52 3/4 ton, the manual shows some special tool to reach in and adjust the brakes. where do i find this tool? can i "modify" a screw driver? | | |

You can modify a screwdriver but it has to be wide (about 1/2") then needs to be bent to a 45 degree angle about 2" from the end. Not rocket science, but works good. | | |
