Okay, here's the thing. I'm getting into my leaking brake caliper and I notice that neither side has the inner adjustment screws for the e-brake. I looked on Pelican for replacements, but all I found were the outer screws. Are they the same, or am I missing something? I would think that another part would be needed to turn that gear in there. Am I missing pieces, or am I just an imbecile? Thanks much.

It is the top part of each of those adjusters that the Allen key goes into. You cannot be missing the 8 & 10mm adjusters without having a big hole in the outer half of the caliper. It is the short one that can and often does go missing. The caliper can function without it, but you cannot adjust it. Eric would have some spares, but they are getting scarce since so many get lost. Even though I have a lot of calipers and also rebuild a lot of them, I cannot afford to sell any spares since I just cannot find enough for my own use.
