BJ7x Drum Brake Operation

Post by fullthrottle »

So, teach me something.....

I recently rebuilt the rear drum brakes on a BJ73 and was curious how the automatic adjuster works when operating the hand brake.

It looks like the automatic adjuster operates everything the handbrake is pulled, but surely once it gets to a point it stops adjusting so the brake doesn't bind up. Just interested in how it works...picture for reference.
