TR7 Brake ajustment up-date

The 80 model TR7 dose not have an ajuster that can be backed off, or a hole in the back plate to ajust the brakes. You athe brake by pulling the E Brake handle a couple of times. The reason the drumn wouldn't come off was the center hole in the drum was rusted solid to the flange on the hub. A soaking with with PB blaster,a BFH, and pry bars poped it off. After all that to verify the customer had a bad wheel cylinder leak. He told me he ddin't have the money to fix it. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif
