so when adjusting the inner on a car, this is the thing that needs to be turned to adjust inner clearance?

well, i can get some peddle, but some times peddle still goes to floor.

from top down, my peddle has about 2" of dead movement, then resistance from the MC/etc the rest of the way when it stops from pressure just before hitting the metal, but sometimes peddle still bottoms out. more bleeding needed.

also my rear rotors rubbed on my pads, so I started with outer vent adjustment and found a slight adjustment clockwise on L&R outer screws alleviated rubbing/noise.

I made this tool from 17mm wrench and 13mm socket.

oh, and when I turn the rotors by hand and have my wife step on brake peddle, I get strong stop on all 4.
