can anyone give me the lowdown on adjusting e brakes ones you pulled it down and are in here?
1. do i need to fully dissassemble it? or if pad thickness looks good and you are putting on new rotors can i grease it and adjust it and close it up?
2. do you remove that big cast piece that looks like it is bolted to the axle? is it two bolts holding it to the axle? it looks like there are four back there and one is a real pain to get at?
3. how do you adjust it? i couldn't tell from the FSM how to do this? there is a nit with a sort of stop piece on the back and it seemed like you tighten or loosen the it until the stopper hits and then back off one turn or something?
4. how do you adjust the star shaped adjuster knob? do you turn it until you get some kind of diameter on the outside face of the pads?
5. do i grease anything that moves with moly? lithium? other?
THANKS
