Automatic Adjuster
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 1991 Plymouth Sundance, 1991 Plymouth Acclaim, 1991 Dodge Spirit, 1991 Dodge Shadow, and 1991 Dodge Dynasty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Adjuster screw thread on Daytona and LeBaron is opposite of other models. Adjuster moves upward when brakes are applied. A cage and spring on adjuster cable absorbs secondary shoe movement, except when shoe wear results in enough movement, causing adjuster to rotate. This feature reduces possibility of over-adjustment.
NOTE:
Adjust brakes shoes only after replacing brake lining, or if brake applications are insufficient to actuate automatic adjuster.
