Most trailers do NOT have self adjusting brakes. Adjust them.
Whelp, it looks like I'm going to be spending sometime on my back under my trailer. I thought trailer brakes were self adjusting like the vintage cars rear drums I had when I was young.

It looks like I will be saving $1,600. The RV stealer-ship wanted that to replace all 6 brake backing plates. (diagnosed and quoted over the phone without looking at the trailer)
Thanks everyone for your help, its truly appreciated.
