New Larger Caliper Parking Brake
Positive pad retraction to eliminate drag.
Four times the pad area of the MB1 Caliper!
3X more holding power than the MB-1 (7210) caliper!
Cable can go left or right by turning the caliper over.
Push
Pull Cables every 6 inches. (Over 60 inches add $2.00 for each
additional 6 inches) Kit includes: the bracket and bolts, push pull cable
and the clevis. This will be enough parts to connect the caliper to the cable.
We need a measurement, as these cables are pre-made and cannot be cut.

3. Extra Bag of (10) 3/8 .010 washers to true your rotor.
Installation Instructions
1. Install the rotor on the back side of the yoke and true up with the thin
washers. The truer the rotor is the less the pads have to be removed from the
rotor. The rotor can also be trued by machining the back side of the yoke.
2. The passenger side stud can be installed and locked in place with a 3/8-16
Nut. Put the other two studs on the bracket with two nuts on the back side and
one on the front side. Now the bracket can be put on the first stud and rotated
up on to the rotor. Lock the two back nuts together to help turn the studs into
the housing.
3. Adjust the bracket back until the step stops on the bracket arms stop the
inner pad with as little clearance from the rotor as possible. Rotate the rotor
to make sure it clears any wobble in the rotor.
4. Tighten or loosen the (2) 3/8-24 X 3 1/2 bolts to adjust the toggle. The
activating arm should not touch the stop in the cutout. The closer the toggle is
to straight the more holding power it will have. Tighten the (2) 3/8-24 X 3 1/2
bolts to make the toggle have more or less of an angle when the brake is
applied.
5. Adjust the (2) back 3/8-24 X 1 1/2 bolts to stop the outer pad with as little
clearance from the rotor as possible. Rotate the rotor to make sure it clears
any wobble in the rotor.
6. Using a push pull cable or a solid rod will positively push the lever off and
hold the pads off of the rotor.
7. The truer the rotor runs the less movement the pads have to move to remove
them from the rotor.
8. The spring will hold the pads off of the rotor if your cable and brake lever
let it go off far enough.
