Finaly did what Ford should have done in the 1st place
ok well i got tired of my ebrake sucking.....it was ok with the drum brakes because i could adjust it and make it work again...but with the disk brakes the cable was just to stretched and if i tried to adjust it any more it would pull one the ebrake pads to much and wear them out....well i fixed it...

ya i know but i replaced the ebrake shoes with brand new ones and adjusted the brakes out as far as they should be so they dont wear out to fast.....so they are just barley touching.....and you cant really adjust the cable on the expo axle like you could on the ranger axle....when the ebrake was off the cable flopped around and there wasnt any thing i could do about it....because the hook on the axle that the cable hooks on only goes back so far so no matter how much i adjusted the brake shoes the cable could only be pulled to a cirtin point.....so since there was slack in the cable there was no more adjusting i could do...so it was either this..a perminate fix or buy a new cable that would stretch out again...this cost me about 10 bucks....
