Noob parking brake adjustment question I have an 02' Z28, how do you adjust the parking brake on these? Just ordered new pads/rotors from Brakemotive, want to do this as soon as my parts arrive.

Yeah, if its loose there is a way to tighten it. You have to remove the rear rotor. at the bottom of the e-brake assembly there is a little wheel to tighten or loosen it.

Yha there is,,, pull up on ebrake handle with button in and while keeping the button in pump it 4 or 5 times and it will tighten it up.... some say it may or may not work,,, it worked for me when i removed my rear end,,, good luck
