Is this the correct direction for the parking brake adjuster?
Or do I have it in their backwards?

The idea is that you turn the adjustment the same way to tighten or loosen regardless which side. To tighten, turn wheel down (handle of screwdriver up). So that's why they are installed the way they are.

The vette doesn't have that since it's just the parking brake so the star wheel doesn't need auto-adjusting

FYI, I read in another post that the right side spindle support is 3820644 and the left side spindle support is 3820643. Both of mine are 3820643, but they are mirror images of each other and have the "D" shaped hole on opposite sides, so just put the "D" side to the rear on both of them. I bought this car as a trailer full of parts, but I am pretty sure these are the original supports.
