Looking for the best place to buy a E-brake hardware kit

Post by 92wagon »

Well it's time to replace the rear brakes in the 94 Legacy Ti Outdoor Wagon.
I have everything I need except the hardware kit for the parking brakes.
Of all the local parts stores none of them have the hardware kit....


My question for you is:

Where can I find a parking brake hardware kit??

Well I found one at a local parts store after all....

When I looked last night online none of them had one listed. So I went to the store today and they had them in stock.

Unless you live somewhere like the northeast that salts the roads.

when i got to the parts store today the earliest year they had for the hardware kit was 95.
will that fit my 94?
i feel it should, it's only one year off.
the 95 legacy l came with 14" tires as well.

The e brakes are all the same size unless you have an STI. However, 95 was the beginning of the 2nd gen redesign so stuff isnt considered automatically interchangeable. Although many things are, I dont know if the hardware itself changed. The shoes interchange though, so I dont see why hardware wouldnt.

Have you checked whether your e-brakes are worn or need replacing? Unless you're doing e-brake slides, the e-brake pads are probably ok.

Yes I have checked. One of the ebrake pads fell off upon taking the disc brake off. So on that note time for some new ones!
