The e-brake hasn't worked since I got the truck so I'm not missing anything temporarily even though it's kinda hack right now, at least the truck is functional again. Nice to at least know that I'm learning and moving forward with my mechanical abilities. I've never replaced drum brakes before so that's kinda cool. I'm really having a fun time with this truck doing things myself even if some things are frustrating. It's all about learning.
That's the best way to learn.
