What happens to unadjusted brake shoes?
#1
I didnt adjust my shoes all the way so my E-Brake has 25 clicks instead of the specification of around 11-17 clicks. I wont have time ti readjust for a few days. How bad is that, will it hurt anything?

They should self-adjust with parking brake application. However, as the shoes wear, you need to take up the slack of the parking brake cable. If the self-adjuster wheel is frozen, then yes, you may need to free it and take up the gap there.

The adjuster could be siezed up. I had to take mine (both sides) apart and clean em and grease the hell out of em. Work fine now .
you can adjust it through a hole in the backing plate . theres a little rubber grommet that pops into the hole you have to remove.
