Figured out my brake leak; It's the E-Brake Mechanism.

Well theres a good chance I wired it wrong. it came with with 2 power wires, one for the battery and one for the reg 12v hook up. i think the battery one is also labeled ACC for accessory.

and that guy was definitely not wearing his seatbelt, no one get ejected from a car wearing a seatbelt.

Standard color codes should still apply. If you're using a metra harness just match the colors. If ACC was hooked to constant +12v, the radio wouldn't shut off when you turn the key off.

Josh, just set a date and lets see what we can do. I have seen the black one, I was in the truck the one day that I saw him.

yeah i just looked at the book and it tells me to wire both to the battery. Only thing is there is no wire for ACC on the harness. And the yellow is not the ACC wire. ACC is red and the battery/12v wire is yellow.

I don't think there is an easy fix for that Lifter. I know when I had the Chevelle's rear ones apart, the parking brake stayed together. It might just be easier and cheaper to buy a new caliper than to try and fix that.

There will be o rings in there, don't know if they will be rubber, viton, or what. I did see something about a copper gasket somewhere in the caliper too. I am not sure but there might be bushings or something along those lines that might have worn out on around the shaft.

Did you feel any play on the shaft when you looking at?

I actually think a new caliper would do the trick. Seems more or less like the ebrake mechanism comes with the entire caliper. Ebrake still works, just leaks fluid so it's probably a seal.

Good call on getting a new caliper.

Brakes can be a wonderful thing to figure out sometimes.
