I need to install new adjusters in the rear end of my 79 bronco,was wondering how to make sure they are set in there right.I have the rear end out and on the bench.I have never had a 9" rear end apart.thanks jason

 

First off Welcome to FTE and the Big Bronco Forum. We'll endeavor to get you the most complete answer we can.

Which parts are we actually discussing here? The only "adjusters" I can think of back there would be the drum brake "star wheel" assemblies and the associated components that keep them "adjusted". But replacing them would not necessitate removing the rear axle assembly.

 

thanks for the reply,there are two one on each side of the ring gear assembly,they are threaded with a bunch of holes.one of them had a small crack in it so I am replacing both.thanks again
