exactly.

osad, its almost obvious when you lock the rears. when you get your car try it and tell me.

maybe its my ebrake that i have to adjust under the car thats causing the lock up problems.

i can lock up the rears easy when sliding tho.

you don’t need new pads to lock em up man… adjust the line and pull harder. its damn easy to lock the back end unless your using really good rubber.

i’ve already adjusted the line from the ebrake, but i think theres slack in the line from under the car.

when i get it on a hoist i’ll adjust it from there instead of from the ebrake handle
