Does anyone know if you can adjust the ebrake by adjusting the ebrake handle or the rear sn95 calipers? I mounted the bracket a little to far so it doesn't pull on the brakes. Thanks.

What bracket are you refering to? There is some adjustment in the E-brake lever mechanism. you'll need to pull the center consule out and adjust the paul going into the handle. Sure you have the right cables?

The bracket that I mounted wrong is the t-bracket if thats what its called. It pulls on the 2 rear at the same time when ebrake is applied (had I mounted it correctly). It came with my complete sn95 rear disc brake setup. How much adjustment can be made using the handle? Thank you.

I would guess that you are talking about the bracket that hangs right under the trans tunnel above the driveshaft of which both e-brake cable attach to right? Than this bracket has another single paul that runs into the car and winds around the e-brake mech. I wasn't aware that this bracket mounted to anything. I just recall it suspended above the driveshaft with tension from the cables. You can make some slight adjustments with the cable in the car like I mentioned. I'll ask again, sure you have the right cables for this app.??

I had the same problem with my SN95 rear calipers. You can't adjust the e-brake cables anymore than they already are bro. You have to get shorter cables. The SN95 bodies are slightly longer than a foxbody and so the e-brake cables are also longer to compensate. You need to remove the cables you have and get shorter ones! I can't stress that enough

I am hoping that JohnB or someone with a 93 Cobra can verify this: Get some 93 cobra e-brake cables and they should work perfectly.
On my application, I just don't have a working e-brake yet

I haven't had my ebrake for over a year now. I just thought I can solve this problem easily, but guess not. Let me know when you fix yours and I'll let know if I fix mines. Thanks.

Hmm thats a tough one. Try contacting stainless steel brake corp and see if they have any cables that'll match up. What about the cables that come in the ford cobra brake conversion kit for a fox body? Any chance these will work. I would think so but do you have sn95 cobra or gt calipers. Good luck
