early z backing plates

[Patcon]

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

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.

Thanks Arne,

I still have aluminum drums, I will look for the access hole in the drum.
