1974 Porsche 914 2.0. My parking brake doesn't fully engage. When I'm on a hill, the car slides (with some drag). Today, I put the car up on stands and removed the rear wheels. First thing I noticed was that the rear left wheel has A LOT of drag without parking brake engaged. The rear right is better. I set the venting clearances on both the outside adjusters to .004, but the inside adjuster caps are stripped, so I'm going to have to pull off the calipers and figure that out.

Question though, how do I know if the calipers are seized? Or could it be the lines? Or simply the inner adjuster clearances?
