Rear disk brakes don't close after replacing Front Brakes

I just replaced my front pads and rotors, but now my rear brakes don't close and there is a large gap between the pad and rotor. I'm getting pretty good stopping power from the newly replaced front brakes, but want to get them all working very soon. Thanks.

Re: Rear disk brakes don't close after replacing Front Brakes

What kind of car are you referring to, make model and year? Have you tried setting the parking brake a few time since that is usually what keeps the rear brakes adjusted (depending on the vehicle)?

You should also consider moving this post to the forum specific to your vehicle.
