sorry for all the questions guys :oops:

I think most parts places; Checker, Pep Boys, Auto Zone, like that, they should know what you are looking for, just check before you hand them the cash!!

yeah so my rear rotors look nice and shiny still...but i checked the e-brake and it doesn't work when i let the pedal out..........so the e-brake does go on when i push the pedal in but it won't lock......is this the same as what everyone else experiences or is it complete loss of e-brake??? looks like ill be giving this fix a shot anyhow!! thanks for the tips guys!! :D


p.s. will just pushing the e-brake with out leting it lock (like mine) keep the rear calipers from siezing and such??

:shock: Hate to do this to you, go back and read prospeeders first post in this topic to fix your non-latching e-brake  :oops:  

If the rear rotor is shiny then its been working, should be good to go, or stop that is :lol:

ok so its axactly the same as me......so i still need an answer......will just pushing the e-brake pedal be sufficient for adjustment of the e-brake or does it need to be pumped and set with a fully functional e-brake???

p.s i went out and found the lever/catcher and worked it with a screw driver and its definately super stiff.....i don't see a bunch of gooey grease and i can't really tell where to clean or lubricate.....so should i go back and pull the assembly out and or should i just spray and pray with it in the car, how did u guys do it with out making a mess...
