I tried to adjust my front brakes and found the adjusters were frozen.I decided to pull the drums instead of trying to work through the holes.Good thing cause the inner wheel bearings didnt have to much grease left.Anyway pulled the front brakes off,cleaned the backing plates and put some fresh lube on and reassembled the brakes. repacked the bearings,adjusted the brakes and also adjusted my steering box.I found out how to do this searching the old posts. When I test drove I could not beleave how different the truck stopped and steered. just like new

It's great when you do something that doesn't take up too much time,or cost a bunch,for big results.
Makes driving them even more fun! (and safer!)
