Handbrake adjustment !

Post by Weelawser » Sat Sep 18, 2021 9:38 pm

Rear shoes adjusted as per the many posts, only problem is that the handbrake still doesn't tighten up. Having looked at the auto adjuster does this look correct ?
I thought the little hook should effectively disappear within the spring....never checked the cables, the car has been sitting with the handbrake off for nearly a year 🙄
Any help much appreciated,
Paul
