Hello,
I need to adjust my parking brakes. After installing new rotors and pads on the rear (2004 4x4 XLT), the parking brakes were dragging, and making a terrible squeal while driving in reverse as well as making a clunking noise when first backing up the vehicle. There was also some resistance that I noticed, mainly again while going in reverse.
Just to get rid of the resistance, squeal and clucking I removed the rubber plugs and backed the adjuster way off. Now I need to know what the proper setting should be.
Can you please descibe the exact proceedure for the most simple way of getting the parking brakes adjusted properly?
Thanks!
