Default Warrior parking brake problems

Hey guys, the adjustment bolt in the caliper for the parking brake bent when I was trying to loosen it (like it was made out of brass or something... ) anyway, I pulled it out and went to the local hardware store and found a virtually identical bolt. I put the bolt in the calliper, and now, no e-brake. Is there something inside the calliper that gets messed up when you remove the bolt?

what do you need an e-brake for? just more cables that are in the way. buy a block off plate for $10.

I don't REALLY need the ebrake, though it does come in handy occasionally. The whole reason I was trying to adjust it is because it drags a lot, and I'm assuming is robbing a lot of power, and wearing out my pads and rotor.

I think I'd rather get a block off plate. Where do you get one?

I had removed my parking brake from my Warrior. It's just added weight. Cap it.
