i just pulled mine out and wound the adjuster all the way back, so it isnt touching the little metal things that push on the shoes
then i just tapped the metal things back into the adjuster, this and alot of inox was enough to free them up
then you wind the adjuster all the way out so that the metal things come out, then clean them up with some sandpaper
and also clean the thread of the adjuster

then they should be as good as new

When I did the rears on Monty, I replaced my adjusters with new ones. Sounds like you would need to rekit them if they are stuck, but goto a good brake place with one of them and see if they can get you new ones??? If they are anything like 620's I can get new ones.

Try heating the aluminum body with a propane torch after using a good penatrating oil. Make sure you have the adjuster secured in a vice. Good luck Larry.

I have the same problem with my B110. Even in the vice I cannot get it to turn.

Do B210 or B310 adjusters interchange?

Hunting's of England had a couple of good
lubricant sprays for loosening rusted parts
and freeing locks, they were called Ezy-Open
or something, and are better than the usual
WD40 or RP7.

Possibly you could try those.

Hi
I was trying to adjust my brake shoes adjuster on my drums and it seems to be stuck, wont budge at all even after removing the drums and tried tapping/hitting it.
Anyone got advice on tackling this issue?
