Thanks everyone. I appreciate the comments. I'll be sure to post up how it all feels after I get some time with it. I'm honestly not sure where I'll even be able to get it aligned. That's going to be the first hurdle. I may consider getting the tools and doing it myself. Just not sure I want to spend the money. Decisions decisions.

I did not go back and search it out, but it you are using the Lokar hand brake it will not hold. Not enough throw. Get one out of the salvage yard from any OEM car and it will work.

Payton, I'm using the factory foot pedal and Lokar cables. It appears the cables are pulling far enough looking at the lever sticking out the backside of the backing plate. Could it be that it's not pulling hard enough though once it does reach its limit? Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks

I had the wilwood's with the parking brake. Tried a number of different things and adjustments and it just did not hold that great, but I had the hand lever. I would think yours would hold. Put a spring on the E Brake pedal to pull it back if it is gone.
