Both rear wheels are off the ground. Emergency brake cable is completely disconnected. With pads off the wheels spin without rotors and calipers touching. It is possible that axles are to long?

Brake are not something I like working on. Its a safety thing with me. Drove my cobra up to the local brake shop back in Nov. to have someone check the problem. While the mechanic was test driving the car a rock (boulder) fell off a dump truck and went under the car riping off the oil and trans pans. After writing me a heffty check the mechanic told me that the pads needed to be belt sanded. (I'll work on my on brakes now.)

Thanks for the quick replys!
