(Right rear drum). I ordered a new wheel cylinder and brake line because I striped another bolt. The line I ordered is #7 in this picture: https://www.hondapartsdeals.co...5.gif

How do I install that when I get the parts? Does the bolt rotate on the brake line and into #28? Or do I need to rotate the whole line?

I need to get this done asap, thanks.

 

yea the nut on the hard line rotates. you shouldnt have to turn the whole line

 

also remember to bleed the brakes again.

 

Of course.

Any advice on setting the e-brake? I know that both lines are intact and not cut anywhere but they seem like they loosened up over the last 19 years. If I adjust them as tight as possible and the brake still doesn't engage, is there a way to shorten the cable?

 

You need to adjust the drums. There is a star nut, that is suppose to self adjust when you hit the brakes in reverse. You can probably find a pic of it, just do a search about adjusting drums.

 

The celvis is to adjust the regular brakes, not the ebrake. I might need a way to shorten the ebrake line.

 

The way the rear drums brakes are adjusted does make a difference on the ebrake.

My ebrake barely even worked, adjusted the drums now it holds hard on 4-5 clicks, without doing nothing to the cable adjustment in the car.

 

Either way, the clevis is self adjusting. My problem is the cable is too long.

 

So is there an easy way to shorten the ebrake cable?
