Pigeon feeders attract me ![]() ![]() ![]() Group: Members Posts: 938 Joined: 24-July 07 From: Houston, TX Member No.: 7,942 Region Association: None |
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. |

It was the p.o. that did the brake work. i've been going through this car and un f***ing it. The brakes are the next project. I would like a handbrake and it would be a nice thing after several instances where having one would be nice. I've been slowly adding features to this car that were p.o. removed.
I will do the fly height when I can. I will likely send them to you eric for a rebuild. the pin that the parking brake stuff controls is stuck solid on the left side. This is also the rotor that's dragging. Thanks for your advice eric. I will do what I can but if it needs a rebuild, you'll be hearing from me |
