Hi,
I give up on everything I told you after reading the other posts.
I see what state your are in and that is explaining a lot more to me.
The Bricksters on here have been all over these cars and a few inside some deep dark cavernous areas as well. I’m talking the electronics.
I was there once once to take a cruise ship from your state. I covered my car with a car cover while parked. Never realizing that I didn’t see any other cars with one during my visit.
The salt from the air ruined it.
For years I never could get it shaken or washed out.
That salt was so fine and powdery it has absorbed it down into every fiber of what seems like a paper like product. I eventually threw it away as it started to tear anyway.
I have another new one because they were on sale a couple times over time and didn’t see the harm in them. But now using it outdoors will be very limited as my cars sit inside a lot too and get dusty.
I hope dirt rinses out better than sea salt.
I have never had a reason to inspect my parking brake system but from what is being said I have to believe it.
As far a rear wheel bearings Kittygrey has written about greasing them up, of which, I have never done either.
Apparently they do not share the differential oil like I thought the older cars do or did in my day.
So, I did buy one complete set from SKF years ago.
I did this just in case something develops in that area.
They were not terribly expensive back then to stash away.
Thanks for starting the thread as both of these component areas are definitely over looked all the time.
Phil
