    I'm in the process of redoing the breaks on 61 special, and have run into a snag. The self adjuster on my driver side rear is completely frozen. Does anyone know where I can get a new one, or what cars it might be interchangeable with. I have tried all me sources and no one can get me the part.

    Go to a parts house like NAPA ,CarQuest etc with the old one in your hand. That is not for a one year one make car. It will be used on most everything American in the 60s-70s with that diameter drum . There were a few different styles of self adjusters but finding a replacement should not be that hard. I've un-stuck a few of those ,get out the heat/torch and warm it up.
