Hello,

I am a long time SHO ('91) owner and for the first time am repairing the 
rear brakes.  I encountered many problems in the process.  I am hoping 
someone can shed some light my direction:

1.  I never could figure out how to remove the emergency brake cable, which 
is in the way of the lower bolt.  Luckily with a wrench and plenty of 
patience the bolts came out with a little fanagling at the end.  How do you 
remove this cable?

2. After I got the calipers off it became clear the passenger side caliper 
had a stuck pin.  I have tried every thing I can think of but it is not 
moving.  I am now thinking I need to make some more invasive proceedure to 
fix the pin, but because of the e-brake I can't remove the caliper.

3. Once I do figure out how to remove the caliper from the car, what would 
be the best way to remove the rusted pin? (drill it out, buy a whole new 
setup)

Any help would be appreciated.  I have got to do this one my self as the 
finances will not all the help of a mechanic.

Thanks.
