I did a search but didn't find much on this topic. Just wanted to know if the brake adjusters are removable? As I dropped my backing plates into an acid solution to clean them up, but the acid has slightly eaten the adjusters :roll:

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers, Leighton.

yeah, they screw out - outwards towards the brake drum (where it would be)

down't forget you have the wedge's on the otherside from where you are extracting the adjuster from. once you are happy how clean it all is...coat both the wedges and the Adjuster with copper grease. I did mine two years ago and all perfect
