My parking brake wasn't working and one of the cables looked like a rat chewed through so I replaced them today (the cable was actually working, but it still looked bad)
Anyways I replaced these brakes about 1.5 years and they are still in good shape, but I don't think I ever adjusted the parking brake when I replaced them. Since I put new parking brake cables in today I wanted to adjust them via the FSM. The FSM made NO SENSE at all. Mark 1/4" and wait till they are aligned. Maybe I missed something but it didn't seem like the two would ever line up.
So, I just looked at my Hayne's manual and it basically said keep adjusting till they're tight and the brakes don't drag, which I did.
My question is, can anyone please explain what the hell they were saying in the FSM regarding parking brake adjustment?
