Posted June 12, 201113 yr comment_358419 I rebuilt the rear brakes on one of my early Z's. I wanted to run the adjusters out to limit pedal travel but I don't seem to have the holes on the inside of the backer plate to advance the adjuster with a screwdriver. Has anyone else run into this problem? Is there a good solution or way to ajust the brakes out. I manually activated the e brake maybe 100 times or so, but I only heard one side clicking.Thanks, Charles Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39863-early-z-backing-plates/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
June 12, 201113 yr comment_358420 The original aluminum drums have/had a hole in the face (came with a rubber plug in it) to allow access to the adjuster from the outside. If you have aftermarket replacement drums, those holes may not be present.
