    I R truck driver, whats a slick adjuster, and all talk about using tools, when I see a gap between the stopping thing and the round metal thing that hold all the dust I shove.my log book paper in there til the gap is full, I also found that as long as I don't use that brake pedal I never seem to have to adjust my brakes, sence braking only slows.me down.

    You mean I should use grease between those brakeads and the round dust collecter thing, #### why didn't I think of.that before that makes sence it would help stop the drag and might save fuel and for sure it will save on brake lining wear. Lol I kidd of course. B104 10-4
