• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Need Some Help/Advice

A while back, my former dealer replaced the parking brake cable during the 2013 RT recall work, because it had melted. Shortly after I got home, I discovered they had left a piece off the brake assembly on the rear wheel, that connects the parking brake cable to the brake. See the photo, below. I was going to go to another dealer, a couple hours away, but got caught up in jury duty, and by the time that ended, the snow had started flying near there, and I haven't had a day where the entire route is clear . . . so haven't gotten there. I broke down and ordered the cable support assembly from CanAm. The second photo shows what came in the bag. I've numbered the parts. Parts 7 and 8 are already installed, as they were not removed by the dealer. I know that I need parts 1, 2, and 3 . . . but need someone to tell me if the washers (labeled 5 & 6) or the rubber piece (labeled 4) are part of what is missing. and, if so, what sequence do they go on, starting at the star shaped part on the brake that part 1 fits over . . . The parts break down of the brake assembly at the CanAm web site does not go into that level of detail . . . Thanks in advance for the assist.

By the way, these type questions shouldn't be asked on a Friday night when people are hitting their bottles, you will get all kinds of answers.

Ask me again in the morning. lol

Glad you (I) figured out your issues. :thumbup:

Thanks, Lamont . . . Chupaca bailed me out :clap: . . . with comic backup from Snoopy! :yes: I have a parking brake again! I hope to see you on 4 January for a laser alignment! I'm watching the weather, and, so far, its looking good.
