Thud...Is that crashed pic 2742???

The service bulletin on adjusting the Shaft/Disc ebrake set up is a must have!! How something so simple was made to be so complex is baffling!

Not only does it vibrate loose and rattle, if you go too tight and you melt the pad.

Before you fall in love with the upgraded parking brake (driveshaft mounted), you should know that that troublesome design has been scrapped and they now have a rear wheel mounted design parking brake again....It is imperative that you use the proper length bolts with Loc-tite on your driveshaft mounted parking brake or you could be getting up-close and personal with your driveshaft...

Blas, tell us more. Is it a retrofit design that will work for older cars? Sounds like to me nothing more than a different rotor with a couple pads mounted internally for the e-brake?
