914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Looking for reference Rear-brake venting and Parking brake adjustment

Posted by: RiqueMar Sep 18 2021, 07:21 PM

Hi Everyone, I've used the 'search' function in for various terms as well as referenced my Haynes manual, but I'm wondering if there is any 'step-by-step' method from the members here regarding rear-brake venting and setting up the parking brake? My entire system is new, from the cables to the calipers, so I want to make sure to do it correctly.

Thanks!

I made a video on venting clearance for the Ferrari 308 rears. Same caliper and process. It starts about 17:00 in…

The last few times I’ve done this, I didn’t use a feeler. Just tightened till the caliper dragged on the high spot, and backed off just until it didn’t.
