I had my rear brakes done before I left for my towing trip from Seattle to Arizona. The brakes are great but now my E brake pulls all the way to the stop and isnt engaging my brakes. How can I adjust it? |

The first post on the thread is adjusting inside then there's a link to adjusting the rear drums http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=19141&hilit=emergency+brake |

Good luck. There seems to be some noise that the Liberty e-brake is a bad design as many have complained of failure (exactly what you describe) with no adjustment that can fix the problem. Replacement necessary. Mine needed the ratchet assembly replaced under 36,000 warranty, then failed again about a year ago and only holds the jeep on an incline in reverse. Won't hold the jeep on an incline going forward. I'm going to try to adjust mine coming up, but I'm not hopeful. |

they were never designed to really hold the vehicle, much less hold the vehicle in gear as we've been used to with many vehicles in the past it's just an assist brake that doesn't do a whole bunch |
