My emergency brake finally went about a month back and I'm starting to get some weak braking...

Is it true that the only way for the rear calipers to adjust is via the E-brake??

Click to expand...

The rear caliper screws in somewhat, you have to allign marks on caliper with center of bracket, its in the hayes manual!

Your e-brake is entirely different story, probely to much slack in the cables.

did you snap your cables? i think parts stores actually sell em for like $19 each


as far as weak braking try flushing/bleeding your brakes and using new fluid

really easy to do with a 2nd person. the difference new fluid made in my 95 was amazing! pedal feel is perfect now
