Default Phew! Prayers answered!

I FINALLY got my rotor off, only to find the e-brake spring grinding away inside the drum of the rotor. Wheel bearings are quiet with no play! When I get stuck (that rotor has never been off), I've started praying instead of swearing and that seems to have better results!
Also, thanks to you all for your posts. It was a previous thread that made me look for the e-brake spring problem! :D

Yup, there's a bunch of us here. I think there are like 10 members within 5 miles of me.
Absecon? I was mostly raised in Cherry Hill, and spent a few years on Long Beach Island. :cheers:
