So, replaced my rear pads and rotors with new ones. Ceramic Pads and rotors from Advance. The parts went together fine. During testing it appears my passenger side rear drags a little. Might be a slightly sticking caliper. I took all apart and re-lubed everything and it is not sticking as much, but noticeably more than the driver side.
The parking brake... Much different than my 94 Z28. Long story short, the handle on the console looks like it is going almost straight up and down before it starts to grab ever so slightly. I took the brakes apart again and lubed the adjusters for the parking brake and opened them as far as I could. Actually to the point they won't open anymore and want to spin in place. The pads have about 1/16 to 1/8" of material on them now. How much is there supposed to be? Is there any sort of adjustment point under the car? Any insight appreciated.
I am leaning towards new pads and new adjusters but that looks like over $100 investment - ugh.
