Greg,

You are correct, the adjusters SHOULD be doing it.  But I've had to 
manually adjust the brakes on many of my cars with the auto adjusters.

But other than the shoes not being adjusted correctly, I don't know 
why one side
of the rear brakes would brake more than the other unless there's a 
crimp in the
brake line and the fluid can't flow equally on both sides.
