Default Re: parking brake adjustment (mskansan)

It sounds like a problem with the connection between your Parking Brake Cable and your Caliper. Can you post pics?

In any case, you'll want to check the Cable end to make sure that the Clevis Pin is properly securing the cable to the Caliper's Cam Lever, and that there is a Cotter Pin that holds the Clevis Pin in place.

Also, make sure that the Parking Brake Cable is properly secured to the Caliper's Parking Brake Arm with a Retaining Clip. Sometimes these things can pop off when doing Rear Brake work.

Parking Brake System: (#1 - Clevis Pin, #17 - Cotter Pin, #16 - Retaining Clip)

Rear Brake System: (#31,41 - Caliper Cam Lever, #33,43 - Parking Brake Arm)

Hope it helps (post pics)!!!!
