i have a real stupid (not stupid a oportunity for knowledge) question on my 63's rear brakes. i did both the brakes on my 3/4 tons a couple of years ago and can't remember. the shop manual says the wheel and socket end of the brake adjuster goes toward the front shoe on the left side. if i do this the wheel misses the arm that i thought kept it's adjustment. the right side is fine the manual says it points toward the rear. mabey i am reading it wrong that's happened a time or two or three or four....

On self adjusting brakes it will go to the rear on both sides. They have different threads & are marked L&R.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.

i figured it out. looks like someone switched rear axles and housing that's why it didn't match the manual.
