Glad you got it set up. Those self adjusters never work right anyway. I think most of us still go in there periodically and adjust them manually anyway.

They do but you have to realize they only self adjust when ya back up and apply the brakes, most of us don't use our brakes very much in reverse or very little pressure so they don't adjust up.
Also if your in a corrosive environment then the adjusters corrode up and stop working without periodic maintenance on em.

I had drums on my rig for 126k and never had any trouble out of em or never needed to manually adjust them.
