Indeed!
I was so focused on the adjuster.

how that bar is oriented is a mystery to some, or many, and certainly was to
me until I kept studying online images and basically figured out how it works.

Also.....

Don: if you take the wheel off the adjuster threads, be sure to put it
back on the correct
way. On one of my adjuster bars, the wheel won't back all the way off,
as it shouldn't,
but on one bar, the wheel did. And yes, I installed the adjuster bar
with the wheel the wrong way around.

D-oh.
