streeteg Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 I stripped my interior and painted it to match the exterior-- however when i unbolted the ebrake to paint behind it, it stopped working when i put it back in. It feels like there is no tension on the line as if there is too much slack. Is there a way to reinstall it that I am missing? How do i get that tension back? -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhm Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Just a thought....when you disassembled the parking brake, did you loosen the main adjusting linkage under the car (inside the driveshaft tunnel?) If so, it probably just needs to be retightened to its original position. It's a U-shaped yoke that connects the single linkage from your e-brake handle to the two linkages going to your drum brakes. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streeteg Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 thanks! I will have to get the car back up to check-- maybe it popped loose when i took it out because I know that I didnt adjsut it -Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
