Greetings All!
I return to the well of knowledge seeking advice, experiences, and humorous tales before I jump into another project. Like everything else I've done with a corvette, this will be the first time for me. The knowledge that many of you carry around without a second thought is like treasure to me. And your willingness to share that knowledge with complete strangers is an impressive display of generousity. I wish the rest of the world worked as well.
The parking brake on my 67 doesn't work very well. It's got a little grab left, but not much. I figure it's time to rebuild the thing. I'd just as soon not have to pull the rear axles for this, and I gather that it can be done without doing so, but it looks a little tight and finicky in there.
So I'm anxious to hear from people who have done this procedure, and to learn what I should be careful to do (and careful to avoid). I've got the service manuals of course, but I find that supplementing them with a few real world stories, makes a huge difference for me.
Thank you for reading this, and thanks in advance to everyone who contributes their experiences. I hope no one will be reluctant to add their two cents just because someone else already replied. I enjoy hearing from everyone, and I manage to learn something everytime someone responds.
Cheers!
