Self Adusters

[Ranger16]

Anyone do a drum to disc conversion and have the self adjuster parts they want to sell?

Why—- is my question, you lazy SOB. I’ve still got my manual’s, they MAKE you remember to adjust them. BUT, I digress.

I guess I hadn't updated this. I was not aware that self adjusters wear the shoes quicker, so I have abandoned the idea.
That said, I have to admit that I AM getting a bit lazy in my older years. Hard to get down on my knees and even harder to get back up.

My wife always backed out of the driveway fast and then come to nearly a complete stop right at the road. I'm sure she must have scared several that didn't think she was going to stop or even slow down. Our driveway is over 100 feet long and well, she drives like she backs up. On the gas, on the brakes hard so I took the adjusters off of her car years ago which was a Shadow. She could go through a set of shoes in 15k miles. Well, her 2000 Durango with trailer tow package (11" rear brakes) isn't that way and that sucker still has the original shoes out back with 110k miles on em!
