e-brake not working correctly
e-brake not working correctly
well- had new e-brake lines put on the car month or so ago - and since i needed to pass inspection with it the place tightened the ebrake
anyway the ebrake is a pain in the *** to apply and just doesnt seem to grip as well as it should...
i know theres a way to adjust this - how do i go about it and where?

I think the F body parking brake is self ajusting with the discs, thats why normally sometimes it goes up further then previously.
I'd go back and see what they can do, I dont use mine all the time but when I do It goes on and off without issue and definately holds the car.

hmm that makes sense- only thing is like it literally is like lifting a 60 lb weight to move it about 3inchs up
and i aint no lightweight -
my mechanic buddy mentioned there being a way to adjust or something possible up by the e-brake

This is the actual parking brake adjustment..
Mine was frozen solid, maybe you'll have better luck:
