2000 parking break
What sort of feel does the new parking break system on teh f-bods have?
By this I mean, my 94 Z28 still had the mechanical system on the rear calipers, and I have read that the newer cars have their own parking break cylinder. The used 2000 WS6 I am looking at seems to have much travel in the parking break handle. It goes up to almost a 60 degree angle before feeling tight. My old one only went about 30 degrees.
Thank you,

Re: 2000 parking break
All the new ones are like that I guess...if you pull it up fast enough you can get it to 90 degrees.... <img src="graemlins/fluffy.gif" border="0" alt="[Fluffy]" />
