HELP! just installed spacers now it clunks

Super Werty · 06-01-2014, 12:40 PM

I tried searching but couldn't find an answer.

I just installed some Z1 rear 2 piece lite rotors and extended studs/20mm spacer

I can hear what sounds like the rear brake pads or maybe the rear shoes dragging on the rotor. The car also isnt moving as freely as before. I took apart the rear assembly for longer studs for my 20mm spacers. Please help. What do I need to adjust?

might want to check your e-brake, that may be the culprit

Perharps reinstalled the spring for the parking brake incorrectly. Too much tention on it now so its engaging the parking/emergency brake. Just a thought
