Parking Brake Adjustment: Cadillac

Lubricate parking brake linkage at equalizer and cable stud, and ensure free movement of cables. Depress parking brake pedal to approximately one inch from fully released position. Raise rear wheels. Hold brake cable stud from turning, and tighten equalizer nut, one turn at a time (checking for brake drag after each turn), until light drag is felt on either wheel (turning forward). Release parking brake. No drag should be present at either wheel. After adjustment, parking brake pedal should travel 1 3/4-2 3/4" on Eldorado, and 2-3" on all other models. Pedal travel measurement force is 125 lbs.
