starwheel adjuster cable for rear drums
hi, first post here.
i have been driving around with one rear wheel braking for too long, so today i started the rear brake job. after finally getting my drums off the left starwheel adjuster fell out on it's own(that's why i had no brakes). looks like the cable/spring that keeps the tension on the starwheel adjuster snapped.
i have searched google for hours for this part but none of them show me a pic of a cable with a spring for parts. all the recommended 1984 Toyota Pickup Drum Brake Self Adjuster Repair Kits don't have parts that look like the ones i removed.
is i possible that it was redesigned and they don't use the cable anymore? anyone know where to find these parts?
thanks
the truck is an 85,87,88 sas longbed w 330 k, the drums are 10" and the starwheel is mounted on the bottom of the pads not the top

The rear brake hardware is still available for your toyota. Go look at rockauto.com as a reference to see what parts are available. I usually replace all the springs and cables when I did my rear brakes on my 85 4x4.
