Ive got an axle that came from a 98 4 cyl 2wd rodeo, and cant find a new adjusting screw to save my life, it appears to be a dealer part, the closet dealer is a few hours from me, there arent many 2wd's in the yards and my local junk yard wont even let me out in the yard because the women running the desk is................frustrating... Is there any vehicles that have a similar brake setup that i can get parts for? all i need is the adjusting screw that goes under the cylinder and i need it today. I am going to town to see if the one from an hombre is close enough but i honestly don't think it will be.
If this is in the wrong place, or whatever just tell me I normally don't come in here, I am an evil jeep guy.

The brakes are plain run of the mill drum brakes any D44 eguip'd rear should have the parts you need,all 93-97 rodeos and passports had these....nice find the 4.56 gears also

the problem is I can't seem to source an Isuzu d44 with drums. I am in the north east and as you would expect they didnt sell alot of 2wds up here. Even so I have already had one guy tell me he wont tear a rear end down for one brake part. the only stocked part i can find is chevy half ton 10 inch brakes are close but i need to get another one cause the one i have is too big. If you can think of another newer vehicle with d44 wit drums that would help. we specifically hunted down this axle for the 4.56 to match our front end. I would have preferred a pre 97 axle though
