hello; Do the TB stock rear drum brakes self adjust as you go in reverse? I was told it was true with my old Olds. How about newer cars with rear drums?

The self adjusters work good if they're not froze up and stuck, like most! I also adjust mine when I jack up the car. Gotta say tho, my self adjusters have been working alright. Thank antiseize for that!
Need to be aggressive when doing the self-adjusting method. I'll back up with some speed and pump (jabbing) the brakes, then come to a full stop and let the car rock. Usually 2 or 3 times.
Also do it when the brakes are cold. Hot the drums have expanded and can cause the brakes to drag when cold.
