Brake Adjustment - Confusion

Before the dreaded 'wooden stick', back in the era, there where aftermarket manufacturers making steel adjusting tools. You'll find them pictured in early copies of 'Ford Dealer Service & Field' magazines. The idea isn't new.

They usually can be found on the Hershey field. Good hunting.
 
Model A, just because I am against using a brake board I would never tell you not to use it or at least try it.

Why, because there are many guys that use them and are happy with the results and procedure.

I feel I can get the same results without the board and yes i have tried it.

Here is the best YouTube video I have found on the brakes. The only thing I disagree with is the bias to the rear wheels. As stated before, I found a 25% reduction in stopping distance with the bias to the front wheels. This is a MUST WATCH video for everyone. It is an older video so the quality of reproduction parts has mostly improved.
