... noticed the brake can on the pass. side would leak when brake was applied. ....
Thanks Walter and Bruce will replace unit and checkAlso noticed the driver side slack adjuster has a lot of side to side play on the shaft when brake is off, is that normal , lots of grease on it so cant tell yet what holds it in place
Slack adjuster bushings need to be replaced.
Thanks, I will be looking into it further soon, the play seems to be the slack adjuster sliding on the shaft like a retainer or something is missing
There are usually shims or stroke indicators on the S-cam shaft that take up some of the lateral movement. I suspect they often get left off when slack adjusters get changed.
The cam washers (spacers) are installed on either side/both sides of the slack adjuster to loosely center the slack so it is in line with the brake chamber push rod.
