Cadillac & Chevrolet

Lubricate parking brake linkage at equalizer and cable stud, and ensure free movement of cables. Depress parking brake pedal to approximately 1 1/2" from fully released position. Raise rear wheels. Hold brake cable from turning and tighten equalizer nut one turn at a time. Check for brake drag after each turn by turning wheel forward. When light drag is felt on both wheels, release parking brake. No drag should be present at either wheel. After adjustment, parking brake pedal should travel 5.25-6.75" with a pedal force of 125 lbs.
