    Roush Why would my Rear Brake Calipers Keep locking Up??

    Procedure should be the same as stock, check the Hayes book for instruction, You need to set the parking brake so it dont move (2 people needed) with a nail, and you can disconnect the rear cables from the equlizer, then connect the cables at the rear brakes, reconnect the front cable and rears...

    E-brake

    The rear caliper screws in somewhat, you have to allign marks on caliper with center of bracket, its in the hayes manual! Your e-brake is entirely different story, probely to much slack in the cables.

    E- brake Q ?

    I have a 95, yes the parking brake acyuators stick sometimes at the rear brake, I fugured this was because the parking brake cable had slack i it. The hand brake on a 95 is self adjusting if working right! I thought the fix for this was to fix the hand brake back as it was originaly used taking...
