to make this short the handbrake in the rear that clamps onto the inside of the rotor is messed up.
there are the 2 sides to the clamp. the left is fine (small spring mechanism) the other side is loose. the left spring is shorter, and has a shorter pin going through the middle of it. the right has a longer one, and when it is slightly tight (not as much as the left one) and it is so long that you cant move the small rotor b/c the back of the stud bolts will hit it. when i tested the hand brake to see how it worked, the left side pushes out but the right clamp does not anybody with any experience with this situation? here is an overall pic. the right side spring is close to the outer rotor ![]() like so ![]() not like the left one which is tight (pic is turned) ![]() the right clamp is loose ![]() not against and tight like the left side
