As you all know the dreaded ebrake on your e30 fails and then requires a major overhaul to make them serviceable. I wonder how many e30's have no ebrake at all?
You can see the rusted holes that hold the spring retainer are oversize.:eek:
I wanted to repair mine so I ordered new Bowden cables, new shoes, new discs and new backing plates.
I decided to take a new tact and cut the backing plates in half instead of destroying the rear bearings @ ~$70.00ea.
:cool:
Welded back together. I used the same bracket that holds the brakeline to the backing plate and welded it to the backing plate because changing the brakelines wasn't in the maintenance plan.
:rolleyes:
Painted and ready for assembly.
I now have a safer car.
