Nice Nick! I still need to do the same to install my Camber/Toe plates. Hardest part for me is remembering how to disconnect the e-brake.

Can't wait to try to tailgate you again at the track!

Remove it from the inside of the car. Easiest way.

^Wait what? Really? From the e-brake handle?? Seriously that easy??

Palm to forehead. When taking out the rear from my totalled car, I was in a rush and snipped it. Damn that cable was hard to cut. Ugh...

Yup, just unbolt it from the ebrake handle and pull it all the way through. And it slides right back in. Its guided by tubes, so it goes in easily too!

Nice. That's one of the jobs I'm not sure I want to do myself. How long did it take you?

Pulled it in about 2 hours total with my dad. Then probably 6-7 hours spent breaking it all down, resealing the new diff, cleaning and painting, and all the rest of that jazz.

Also burning bushings ftw. No need for tools and pullers

Also I undid the ebrake at the hub. Honestly way easier than I thought it'd be. Either way seems to be fine

So If i wanted to change out ebrake cables, i can slide it all the way out from the rear and slide new ones in.

Robert, I need some cables dood. Give me price yo!!
