Re: Rear discs, and e brakes
<< Ive adjusted them many times, rebuilt the rear calipers on a few cars,
gone
through the whole damn thing. My e brake works fine for just holding the
car
but I want to be able to spin the car around on dry pavement easily. so
what
did you mean by fine? fine like holds the car or fine like lock up the rear
wheels at 20-25mph? >>
Well, I've never tried to lock up my rears on dry pavement at @ 25mph, so I
really can't tell you. Perhaps in May when I get home I"ll try it, but my
tires don't need to see any more abuse than they already do, so that's why I
never have tried it. One time my front caliper bolt came out when I was a
significant distance from home. I didn't have any tools with me, so I
decided to rough it and use the e-brake and downshift. The two were more
than adequate.
