    Posted: 30 Mar 2014 at 11:08pm
I'm attempting (and not succeeding) at adjusting the brakes on my ACC-40. I've pulled the wheel, the slave cylinder on the left only moves the front piston, not the rear. I suspect that part may be frozen and what I perceive to be the adjuster doesn't seem to want to move. Thought that before i break anything, I'd consult the minds here at the forum. Thanks for the help

does it have a "star wheel" adjuster you access through a hole in the backing plate or drum or the sliding friction bar type that is pinned between the shoes?
There are 3 ways to do job GOOD, FAST, CHEAP. YOU MAY CHOOSE 2. If its FAST & CHEAP it won't be GOOD, if it's GOOD & CHEAP it won't be FAST, and if its GOOD & FAST it won't be CHEAP!!!!

Sadly, it has the adjuster bars that have to be set before reinstalling the wheel. I got the parts reset and think I got the torque setting correct, will know shortly. Hope to not have to put slave cylinders on it.

The torque is very low. Like twelve in lbs or so.   It sucks the don't sell them assembled anymore
