Can Trailer Brakes be Adjusted Once Installed on Trailer
Question:
I just put new brake backing plates on my trailer and didn’t adjust them before putting it all back together. Can I adjust them now?

Yes, there's a slot on the backside of the brake assemblies that gives access to the star wheel so you can adjust the assemblies. We have a tool for that with the brake spoon part # W80630.
To see how to manually adjust trailer brake assemblies check out the video I attached, fast-forward to the 4:35 mark of the video.
