I have finally gotten around to putting all new brakes on my Explorer. I just got done with the front without much issue except for a few rusted bolts and the fact I unexpectedly needed a new hub/bearing assembly (easy fix).
However, now it is time to deal with another problem that I have had since I bought the vehicle, and that is the parking brake or emergency brake. The pedal can be depressed about two clicks with great resistance and there is no braking force applied. Judging by the condition of my front brakes, I'm sure there is quite a bit of rust inside the rear parking brake assemblies. Does anybody have any advice on how I would go about freeing all of this up?
Thanks
