If you had no trouble removing the rotors, the parking brake shoes were probably set super loose from the factory. It was a thing. Don't know if they got any better at it over the years.


Look in my sig line for the manuals. Drill down for parking brake system adjustment. Also to Grady's point. Maybe a spring came loose or something didn't go together properly. Hell, I had made plenty of dumb mistakes before learning how to study all the moving parts before disassembling them.

Look here for the parking brake cable support bracket. It should be tightly clamped to the trailing arm ...ok " no. 1 suspension arm assembly"
