You only need to remove the back end cap of the console. Just remove the slack with the adjustment nut.

Thank you. When you say back end cap, are you referring to the part behind the storage area? I'm assuming it's just held on by bolts and not snapped in place?

Is there a certain amount of slack, or number of clicks it should take before the brake engages? I just don't want to make it too tight.

The back of the console just snaps in place. I usually adjust mine by pulling the lever 1/3 of the way up… then snugging the 10mm nut.

Thank you guys! I will give this a try and report back.

Is there a trick to popping the back of the console off? Like starting from a certain spot so you don't nick the plastic all around trying to pry it off?

Use plastic pry tools. Harbor Freight has a nice set.

Thanks! I'll look into them.
I guess there isn't a specific place to start prying then?
