Well, whenever I pull back on the ebrake, it doesn't have any affect. Can anyone think what might be the problem? Mine is a 96 with a 6.5" lift if that matters.

pull harder
j/k
there is an ajuster that can be tightened, have you loked at it? i can see how you could loose the bolt if tension was lost and it rattled around...
here is a pic on a YJ (we have the same setup)

Well, the lift seems to have tightened the cable a lot... so could it be that I'm running around with the cable engaged constantly?

that could be it, and you didnt notice right away, and then you wore out your rear brakes (which dont help stop you much IMO) and now there is no effect? im not sure...

That could've been the problem. I started out with a 4.5" lift which already streched the lines. But whenever I took it out for a drive, I couldn't tell the difference. Is there a way to check to see if there is any of that ebrake pad left?

I take my inspiration from go-jeep and Stu Olson...and don't have nearly the skills to challenge either of them in the fabrication realm.
