LuminaPower92 Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Whassup Peeps! I was trying to find this answer on a search, but couldn't. I got a 92 Chevy Lumina with a sagging emergency brake cable. The e-brake works, but seeing it sagging low is hard on ones eyes. Is there an adjustment I can do to keep it up close to the undercarriage. Thanks Quote
slick Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 It's pretty normal. Zip tie it up and be happy. Quote
LuminaPower92 Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Posted February 19, 2007 Have any of you had the same problem? Does it affect anything or is it just age? Quote
slick Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Most w's that I've seen have saggy cables. Quote

Addicted To Boost Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 LuminaPower92- I love your Maui Blue Lumina, even though I don't like Chevy's. Nice car Quote
LuminaPower92 Posted February 19, 2007 Author Report Posted February 19, 2007 Thanks I'm going to be doing alot of work to her, even though I spent too much getting her to where she is now. Quote
Andrew Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 X 2 on the maui blue is it just me or is this the rarest of color these cars were built in. Im thinking so, ive never seen one in person. that or silver. and ive only seen like 1 black one. red and white seem to be the dominate colors. mine was white. Quote

There are a TON of silver ones running around by me. Quote
Justin Posted February 19, 2007 Report Posted February 19, 2007 Your e-brake works and it's sagging like that? There's a threaded adjustment right in front of the rear wheel that takes up any slack. My '89 vintage rear brakes work perfectly, adjusters, slides, e-brakes, you name it. There's also a metal guide about right below the drivers seat that the cable is supposed to sit on top of, yours might be underneath it. That would help for sagging as well. Quote

5speedz34 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Around here, I see Red, Black, White, Silver, Maui Blue, and Dark Gray. In that order. Quote
Q-Ball Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 My parking brake hangs. I'm not sure if it works and I'm not going to try. I've heard stories it could be seized up. And if I apply the parking brake, it might not release. Off hand, does the 94+ have a parking brake release knob? Or is it a pump to release the parking brake? Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted February 20, 2007 Report Posted February 20, 2007 Its a pump to release. You push down on the pedal to set it, and push down on it again, and it ir releases Quote
