    Cant find the part # for EBC rears, that's what I have on the front. Having a little trouble making sure my rears are properly adjusted. Any helpful hints.

    Getting the drums off even using the bolts is a pain in the ass. The adjusters are no fun to get to either.

    Eh, they're just drum brakes. I grew up with working on them, pretty standard and no harder than another vehicle with drums.

    Same here... Life has not been so great without you guys... but the AZ group seems pretty active! I'm shipping the taco across and plan on being in Scottsdale by the 15th. :-(

    My place is always open to ya'll. There's wheeling everywhere. Feel free to head out, and MOAB is right up the road.
