like wildeb said, adjusting AU-BA handbrake is a pita, sort of have to adjust the shoes so they "just" touch the inside of the rotor so that they engage with 7 clicks, also making sure they dont make a constant squeek when driving
i found when mine were adjusted to work within a few clicks its was good for a few days then made constant noise, i gave up and got sick of adjusting them so i fitted new shoes and adjusted them so the handbrake engages after 11-13 clicks........... at least theyre quiet now !!!! |
