murphsubaru Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 How do you ajust the emergency brake cable on a 99 Forester? I need to remove the slack. When the handle is pulled all the way up I don't get much braking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferret Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 If it's an L model with Rear drum brakes, I would ensure the self adjuster are working correctly. If it is an S model with rear disks, they use a seperate small brake shoe in the center for the emergency brake. If all the above are working properly then the attached .pdf file shows how to adjust the lever/cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphsubaru Posted June 15, 2006 Author Share Posted June 15, 2006 Ferret, could you please repost the pdf file. When I open it all I get is jibberish. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
