Update: Just did about 400 miles from Denver to Steamboat Springs, wheeled a big loop through Wyoming, then drove back home. Heavy use of the parking brake on the trails, some spots I had to stop facing up steep loose hills and really cranked the brake up as much as I could. The takeaway is: no overadjusting. At one point the brake pedal felt a little stiff (drums were not hot though) and I backed off the adjusters each by about 4 teeth just in case. The washer and larger c-clip make pushing the adjuster arm out of the way more difficult - this is the only drawback I've found. You really have to get in there with a flashlight, make sure your tool is contacting the adjuster arm, and push the heck out of it to clear it from the star wheel ... but it's not too terrible. Just different than how it was before.
