    Hey guys so I recently put on some new e brake levers and im trying to adjust the rear e brake and when I engage it and release it my driver side lever doesn't release all the way and keeps the e brake engaged slightly I have to pull it back the rest of the way by hand for it to fully release. I noticed it when I had the drum off and was spinning the axle. Im wondering with the wheel on and if I start driving will it release fully or should it release fully as soon as I take the parking brake off?

    What parts did you actually replace? Adjust anything else? DO you have any pictures to help depict your issue? Do you have a factory service manual?

    The actual levers themselves I can get some pictures later. I didn’t replace anything internally on the breaks themselves besides the levers
