parking brake issue
« on: Nov 01, 2009, 09:00:19 PM »
ever since i swapped out springs in the rear the parking brakedoes get tight enough to hold the rig.  turns out the connector that connects to the arm on the drum hits the spring pack thus preventing it from tightening all the way.  anybody got any quick fixes
thanks in advance :beer: :beer:
