They were definitely stripped. I pulled the rotor/hub off and actually saw the threads gone on one side of the adjuster. There are two threaded sides which extend/retract depending on direction adjusted. Fortunately my parking brake still works pretty good with the front portion adjusted to match the rear where I adjusted with just one threaded side moving. I'll eventually replace those pieces... about $25 each.

Although, if you're e-brake pulling for fun, of course it would be fucked. It's not meant for that.
