So I did some looking - the ratchets were backed off. I tightened all the way down & backed off bout a half turn. E-brake is fine, but the rears still don't work. Jacked the car up and spun the rears freely with brakes applied. One side adjusted much better than the other, seemed like the spline gear/ratchet was too loose and only took the slightest tightening. I'll bleed them to see if that helps, if not I'll take them off to inspect. What should I look for in regards to the ratchets and/or pistons being broken? Any suggestions on other areas to look at?
