Should the rear brakes have a slight rub when you turn each rear wheel ? I believe I correctly adjusted with a feeler gauge to .8 mm but I do get a rub when I spin the wheel... that does not seem right with the parking brake off
Thanks in advance for any comments |

Glad I saw this post yesterday. I had just finished my first test drive the day before and forgot that I needed to do this. I went out and adjusted the vent clearance on my rear calipers. No issues with this entirely new brake system. Blown away by the quality work done by PMB on my calipers and proportioning valve.

I just got done driving it around from noon till well after dark. I'm like a little kid again. Had to make sure those piston rings got a chance to set into the cylinders. Feels so good to drive it after a 4 year restoration. Now, if Ford could just build my Bronco, I'd be in second heaven! |
