Only Keith True and Y-Blockhead on this thread seem to correctly understand how to properly adjust Model A brakes.

The other people focused on wooden boards and 15 degree arms and fixed length rods etc. are really clueless and scary.

Does anyone here actually ever read and understand all the correct Ford brake adjusting info published by Ford, Fahnestock, Page, Dykes, Chiltons, and other experts back in the era?

Or do people think they are somehow smarter now that they have the amateur hobbiest books and magazines, the internet, and youtube videos?
