Cuda Rear Drum Self Adjuster Spring
« on: January 06, 2009 - 02:05:58 PM »
I am installing my rear 10" drum brakes and I noticed that I am missing the adjuster spring on one side.  I have run around town trying to find one or a kit but have had no luck.  In most diagrams, I don't even see this spring.  Can someone tell me if this spring is needed or superceded, and if so, a reliable source I can order one from.

Appreciate it.

You definately need the spring. Have you tried the local salvage yards?
