just went out and adjusted the brakes for the run tomorrow, i've got a beautiful firm pedal. rock solid. took it for a test drive, works fantastic. I have about 2 inches of pedal travel, maybe less. is this too solid? it has less travel than the 97 festiva sitting in the driveway. should i back it off just a little? on the test drive a cruised downhill with the engine off to see if i could hear any scraping, but nothing. i also applied the brakes with the engine off, no squeak, no strange noise, just a nice, clean stop. which suggests to me that the pedal travel is ok cheers all (oh PS, drums all round) |

How would you slacken them off?? Put some air back in?? You've done a perfect job of bleeding and adjusting the brakes. |
