    E brake problem...i think

    I was watching a video of another cb7 (winter video white car) he had both back tires locked up from ebrake. On my car only the right rear tire locks up from the e brake. did my cable snap to the other tire or is that just a mod he did or what.

    If the cable is broke how do i fix it cause id like for both tires to lock up

      Also check to see if the cable froze.

        i don't think the cable snapped. well it really depends on the situation. if the car is leaning more lets say on the right side, then the left inner tire will lock up easily due to physics. ideally both should lock up so like wed3k stated, check your brake shoes or pads. they are most likely low or you aren't yankin on the hand lever hard enough.

          check the adjustment of the rear brakes, mine were our of adjustment and the park brake handle went all the way up to the top when I pulled it.

          when I readjusted the rear brakes the handle only went up half way and the car stopped way better and the pedal felt a little firmer.

            I just checked my ebrake lines and such the line goes back to the brake fine but i believed the line was broken going into the brakes was broken bummer, plus i looked at the cable where the brake handle is located and it doesnt pull the cable on the right(right sides brake line) i have to pull it all the way then it moves just a lil like a 16th an inch dangit so how do i fix it or should i just get a rwd for driftin
