Dorman 924-243 Parking Brake Lever Boot Compatible with Select Cadillac/Chevrolet/GMC Models

This is the solution for a torn parking brake cover for a 4th gen Camaro / Firebird / Trans Am. This is for the 1998-2002 style parking brake. The haynes manual doesn't say anything about how to fix, bit it's rather simple.Take pictures, release parking brake then remove the screw I believe 5/16" that holds the parking brake shoe. Them slide it off downward preferably but you can also pull upward. Then remove the pistons on either side and push pin from the non adjuster side. Do not loose that pushpin it locates the lever and prevents the lever from coming out of the mechanism. Then remove the 2 back bolt/screws, I believe they are 5/16" to remove the metal plate which retains this rubber gasket. pull the lever our from behind out. If desired you can then remove it from the brake line. Clean the internals, add these seals with the lever opening toward the pushpin side (not the star adjuster side), grease the internals with a silicone based grease (I use the kind for brake caliper pins), then reassemble in the reverse order you disassembled. So not over torque the small screws, the torque should be 44 inch lbs (not a lot).

Like a few others have said, these do not fit in stock form. The base is twice as thick as it needs to be and you cannot bolt down the holding ring as well as the slot is half the length it needs to be to not rip. I cut the base in half as it only needs to be about 1/8 thick and then opened up the hole just so you can get it on the e-brake lever. However, it still does not flex enough to move without tearing when the e-brake is pulled so you have to extend the hole even further. will it work? yes. but be prepared to modify the heck out of it for it to at least marginally work, but at least there is an option to get these by themselves since GM doesn't sell them separately and not everyone needs the complete rebuild kit.

These brake boot levers are just the trick for a 98-02 Camaro/Firebird! Yes folks they will work on the mighty F body! Unfortunately NOBODY makes a backing plate to replace the obsolete ones (sadness) and I need to live with some pretty crusty ones for now (much sadness). I'm sure these boots will add at least 20 MPH to my top end as there is now no parasitic drag from the old ones flapping in the wind and these are much more aerodynamic.

Trailblazer EXACT REPLACEMENT. This will fit 2002 to 2009 trailblazer as well as the envoy and Saab 9–7. It is a exact reproduction/replacement

Rebuilt the back brakes on a 2001 Silverado and replaced the backing plates. The old boots were destroyed so these made a nice addition to the projects to make the brakes "like new".

quick ship good price but wouldn't work on my project. that's on me for not reading description carefully

it was WAY too small, maybe 2" in length. I am at fault for not reading details. Unusable on my vehicle.

If you have a C5 corvette these emergency brake grommets avoid the cost of buying a complete kit including brake shoes if the grommets are all you need. No other place sells them individually

I replaced these two a year ago. The LHS is completely trashed just like the old one. The RHS is holding on in one piece but i can see rubber cracking already. Not good

Works as expected. Fast delivery!!
