MG TD TF 1500 - Brake adjustment

Quick question...have to adjust the brakes in a few minutes...the holes in the wheels are lined up with the holes in the hubs...I know the rears have 'one' adjustment screw to turn....are the fronts the same? Or do I rotate the wheel to find another screw? (been awhile...)

Gordon I think there are two in the front 180 degrees apart. Rotate the drum.

Right on, Jim. Gordon, you might look at page M.6 of the WSM. Bud

....no wonder my pedal was getting a bit 'low'.... got two clicks (and backed off 1) out of each wheel....3 for some reason on the right rear (and backed off 1)....
Also popped the m/c and I was down to the bottom of the upper chamber....oops.... alls good now...went for a quick run and they are stopping even and quick....
Am off to Mosport at 4 in the morning for the ALM series race....
