Rear drum brake problem??
 
On my 72 1/2 ton blazer dose it have self adjusting rear brake's??

If so how do you make them work agian?
I think the self adjuster needs some kind of lube??

Thanks for any input!!

I beleive they do. They readust themselves everytime you go in reverse.

Last time I did the rear brakes on my K5 the adjusters were frozen with corrosion. After soaking with wd40, I was able to get them apart. Then I put wheel bearing grease on the threads before I reassembled. Works like a charm now.:bowtie:
