in addition to the adjustment problem you mention, i've had the problem of 
the brake pad rods seizing in place.  at that point i spent around 25 for 
a 
new caliper and pads and rods and the brakes are amazingly good.  thanks

g.  the adjustment nut is fairly obvious once you have the wheel off and 
jacked up helps.  this nut seizes also tho.  good luck, jon k
