Hi guys, hope everybody’s having a good week so far.
The parking brake on the 73 1.7 car has always been extremely stiff, and when I pulled the cover in the cockpit today here’s what I found. From doing some research I believe these are supposed to be even as opposed to skewed to one side, is that correct?  Thanks! |

Mine is offset and it works fine. I don't remember my high school German, but my equalizer bar was stamped "oben" on one side. I installed it "up".
You need to start isolating components. Does the brake drag? Or is it just hard to pull the lever? |
