well i've had a grinding noise coming from the right rear tire at first i thought it was a bearing or seal gone bad in the rear, well i pulled the left rear tire and rotor to see the emergency brake pad was eating the inside of the rotor about a 1/2" grove, well today as we had a moment in the rain i installed the new em. brake shoe and new rotor, not bad 30 mins of work lol
chevy should be shot for the way they designed this. :bash:
Mine did the same thing! I didn't find it until I failed an inspection because my e-brake didn't work correctly.
yeah i had the same problem with the old ecsb truck lol
Neither of my NBS E-brake's setup worked properly with some miles on them. I was in the hospital last fall due to it and failed inspection on the '99 and the '01 due to it.
Now I "know" some people that just look past that... :smile:

That is too bad, I was hoping to convert my truck to that system sometime!
