There is an adjuster at each rear wheel that makes the parking brake shoes expand or contract. It's been a few years since I've done it, but i think the hole was either at the bottom or the rear on the back of the dust cover. There might be a plug covering it. You'll need a flathead to move the star wheel up or down to get the brakes where you want them. Also, there is supposedly a self adjusting feature. Apply the handbrake several times in reverse and they should self adjust. It seemed to help on mine. |

Check the How-To's Index thread in the KK Tech section. I'm pretty sure there are a couple of parking break threads in there... http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=80240 |
