ETS off has no effect, but I can get the brakes to chirp a little if I hit them hard enough in reverse. Also with the parking brake on it seems to take a lot more gas to get the car to move in reverse than drive. Is that just the way the shoes wear or is it possible someone put them on backwards? I picked up a new set from NAPA today but they look like they're symmetrical. The adjusters look fine and move with no trouble. I'm not really sure how salt would ever find it's way inside the drums anyway, just lots of brake dust in there. How do you adjust the parking brake cable? I Don't see any type of adjustment point on it anywhere like they usually have. I have a haynes manual and it says everything back there is supposed to be self adjusting.
