When I pulled the tires off this weekend to bleed the brakes...found that the parking brake was not connected to the caliper on either side.
I have searched for the parts to connect the cables, but can't seem to locate them.   |

you may want to make sure that the cables are free and that the pads will adjust for venting clearance. One asks "why did the previous owner disconnect the parking brake cables"
There are really a bunch of parts involved in making the parking brake work properly. We constantly find many of these parts missing on customers cars, so they all become one of our most popular sellers, some of them discontinued by the factory. Start by seeing if your rear calipers will adjust for venting clearance QUOTE(advman89 @ Aug 5 2019, 06:31 AM)  When I pulled the tires off this weekend to bleed the brakes...found that the parking brake was not connected to the caliper on either side.
