I have a silly question. The rear breaks on our cars only get used when pulling the hand break right? or do they help when breaking all the time?

 

Did your brakes break?

They help all the time Bias is a bit front favored but yeah.

 

Nah, the rear brakes and e-brake were optional on our car.

You could get the SE track pack with rear brake delete in 03. Weight reduction for better acceleration and brak...just better acceleration.

 

70/30 "Brake" Bias Ratio I believe. A front BBK will change this figure a good bit however.

 

 

Note to self... Don't raise children in Tampa, FL

 

LOL

 

Double LOL.

Haha, we have all asked silly questions before, guys and girls. I love silly questions though, it brings humor to my day!

But yeah, OP, read the posts about the brake bias. The rears get used, just not with the same force as the fronts.

 

the rears should never break, if they do you have a serious problem

 

they only break (sic) when you drive in reverse.

 

They get used just less than the fronts and its spelled brakes!!!

 

My former mechanic told me that.

 

You keep mentioning rear breaks.....what???? Rear breaks seat? Rear breaks loose? Rear break open pants? Rear breaks boyfriends back???LOL

 

do all the breaks on the 5th gen require

 

a seaclamp to do them properly

 

Sea clamp!

 

U mean too push the hidrallic flewit back to the reservation.....LOL!

 

Be sure to turn the piston counter clockwise. Or you can step on the brake pedal a few times while the caliper is removed. This may help!

 

Breakes Or Break Or Brake.
