    I have 10" drum brakes that need need new self adjuster kits...I have looked for new kits but can't seem to locate any...

    Can I use the kits for the 11" brake setups with my 10"?

    If not...where can I buy the 10" self adjuster kits?

    my local napa got eveything BUT the self adjusting parts (star wheel, springs and misc hardware).

    try walacks. otherwise you'll have to manually adjust the brakes.

    Thanks...It seems that the self adjusting parts for the 10" brakes are hard to come by...Oh well...I suppose this is a great excuse to upgrade to 11"!R)

    Careful there Buddy, once you start upgrading things you start down that slippery slope... R)
