Default Re: park brake cable adjustment

There's an adjusting nut on the frame rale on some trucks, or a bolt attached to the cable under the firewall. You can tighten or loosen it from there.

If you mean just adjusting the brakes themselves, there's a star bolt in the brake assembly. Pull the drum off and it's easily seen at the bottom.

Some people are like slinkys. Not worth much but funny as heck when pushed down stairs.
