Answer
Hey Richard:

2 thoughts the aduster is the is for the wrong side of the car. I'm not a parts guy so I can't tell you if the right and left adjuster on this van are the same or different side to side. second though is I'm stumped I really don't have a good answer for you other te first though untless you have the brakes assembeld backrwards on the right side. the brakes are self adjusting when you back up so if for some reason you have them assembled backwards or the adjuster is for the wrong side then every time you stop the van the adjuster is retracting and eventually falls off because the return spring across the top can't keep enough pressure on the adjuster to keep it in between the 2 shoes... It has to be one or the other... Good luck :)
