Make parking brake adjustments in your Mitsubishi 3000GT at home to avoid going to the mechanic. Adjust your Mitsubishi 3000GT parking brakes when your car starts to slip down the hill you park it on. You can use this technique on your 1999 Mitsubishi 3000GT.
Instructions
- 1
Remove the center console covering the parking brake lever. Locate the parking brake lever between the driver's seat and the front passenger seat. Put the parking brake lever in the lowest position.
2Turn the cable adjuster locknut to make the nut loose. Find the nut at the base of the parking brake lever.
3Raise your Mitsubishi 3000GT rear wheels using a jack and support the rear wheels using jack stands. Remove both rear wheels using a tire iron to loosen and take off the lug nuts. Take off the tire from the rods by hand.
4Get underneath the car and remove the rubber hole plugs from the brake rotors. Locate the rotors on the underneath inside of the wheel wells.
5Take off the brake calipers with a screwdriver, but do not disconnect the brake fluid lines.
6Use a pry bar to push up on the parking brake self adjuster wheel. Locate this next to the brake caliper and it looks like a star wheel. Rotate this wheel until the rotors will not turn.
7Turn the adjuster wheel five notches in the opposite direction. Reinstall the calipers and wheels. Lower your Mitsubishi 3000GT using the jack and remove the jack stands from the rear wheels.
