Brake Adjusters - mbrund - 06-08-2007 14:18 Well I went a little to far with one of my brake tension adjusters on my coach and have not been able to determine how to get it to back off. When I try to turn the wrench the other way, it will not budge. How do you get the adjuster to back off?

Since I had the wheels off I went ahead and adjusted them as if I had just done a brake job. Tighten them down till they contact the drum and then back them off 1/3 turn. They where adjusted fairly close, but figured I would do it anyway. Finially found the release pin, it was hidden on the back side where I could not see it. Once I reached around back I found the release pin and pulled it and was able to back it off 1/3 turn.
