help with e-brake...
Saturday, October 10, 2009 7:47 AM
on thursday night, i was getting out of my car and closing the door when i heard a loud pop, and my car started rolling. i thought my ebrake had snapped, but after jacking the car up i noticed everything was still there and when pulling on the ebrake everything functioned as normal. The next day i took off the drums and adjusted the shoes with the star gear. when i put everything back together it still didnt work. so i jacked it back up quickly before i had to go, and noticed part of the cable under the car looked cleaner than the rest of the cable. With my brilliant powers of deduction i think the cable just got loose?

so my question is.... How do i tighten the cable? is it easy, and what tools are needed?
im trying to get this done tomorrow, since this is the only week DA BEARS have a bye...lol

thanks in advance.....!
