Default Brake problem

Just got done installing a All Sport 6" A-Arm lift on my Precedent. Now the brakes are extra touchy. to the point they are sliding the back tires. Is there some adjustment I need to do since I lifted it up? I figured lifting made the cables stretch or something... has anyone else had this issue?

Cables may be too short!

Check out the "sticky" by TahoeDawg that flips the brake plates and takes the tension out of the cables on a lifted cart.

Most likely your driver side brake cable is short and causing the problem. One of two ways to fix it, David has a great write up on flipping the backing plates or you can buy a passenger side brake cable to put on the drivers side.

the write up from TahoeDawg in Sticky is the way I am going to fix... but I am not sure if it is the same for a DS

he basically is flipping brake from bottom to top,, lot of work but will be clean and out of way when done properly

It's the same on the DS and Precedent, but a DS should have more slack in the cables and you typically don't have to go this route unless you just want to.
