My E-break is usless!!! As you read from the topic. Any ideas hoe to adjust it? I got a '93 V8. Thanks!

Maybe you have the same problem I have (posted here (http://www.ilovejeeps.net/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1207)).

Take a look and see if the pads are worn out. Mine had disintegrated, and come off the break shoe.
Otherwise, I guess you can just adjust the control wire, which is clearly visible underneath your Jeep (at least it is on my '95).

Thanks a lot! I will check this weekend!

What exactly is wrong with it? I guess I missed an earlier thread or something. I had a 93 and the button on the lever just fell off and the spring popped out, I sold it before ever finding out how to fix it, but I think I saw a TSB about e-brake prob's on ZJ's. If you need the link, let me know. Good luck. I know how it feels to only park on level ground, I had to cuz mine was a 5-speed.

The problem is that with the E-break all the way on I can still push the entire ZJ by myself! This should NOT happen with the break engaged. I will check the drums this weekend though! Thanks!
