Hey Guys,
I'm torqueing my CV bolts the other day and notice that when i turn my rear wheels, my left wheel makes a 'dragging' noise. like the brake pads are touching the rotor. Is there some adjustment i can do to just that one, or do i have to have the calipers rebuilt? My right front makes a similar noise, but not nearly as much. the other two are silent. |

Cables are "fairly" inexpensive (I think) at around $33-35 each. To me that even makes it work while getting new ones vs. trying to get old ones working. If your's are missing, $60-70 clams might get you back at it.
Regardless, set the venting clearance so your rear calipers will work properly. You will get better brake performance. |
