So have had one of these fall out on me. Shoes kinda flop round, so not ideal. I think mine is a H190? diff? Someone will probably know better than me.
Hoping that these will be on 720s etc as well.
Anyone have anything?

It looks like you have broken the locater off the back of your adjuster, you may be able to get brake adjusters new, with a wait. If they are impossible to locate, (sorry unintentional pun) you could try drilling and tapping and using a bolt with a large washer to locate it and allow the slide movement, not ideal, but better that how it is now.

Pretty sure you can still get new wheel cylinders, most new kits come with new clips etc...... I will find out tomorrow and give you a text and/or a PM.

Sounds like its a Nissan only part. Try ringing Nissan and asking for some 620 rear drum brake adjusters.

Does anyone know what became of the original diff out of Vetty's ute? That would have had some of these on it one would think.
