slack adjusters - mnhoff - 10-30-2015

Do all Newells have automatic slack adjusters or did the earlier units have to crawl under and manually adjust?

My 1992 has to be adjusted every year.

The majority of problems with being out of adjustment has been with foundation brakes themselves, not the slack. Worn s-cams, s-cam bushings, return springs, etc. Any of those issues will prevent a slack from adjusting properly
