Just fitted all new parts in my rear drums. Like
Shoes and all springs etc.
I bought the new handbrake cables also.
I've connected them in the drums then in the middle Of the back axle, but when I go to connect it under the car in the middle it isn't long enough.
So do I just put the handbrake down inside the car, then loosen the part in the middle of the back axle? Until I have enough length so it connects in the middle under car?
Then how do I tighten it? Just that adjustment thing in the middle
Of the back axle? and how do I know when to stop? lol
Maybe a stupid question lol
Thanks Guys!

trial end error. tighten until you cant move the wheels by hand with the handbrake on three clicks. That's how i did mine

Before you do the handbrake adjustment as said 3 clicks min,Make sure that the rear brake shoes are correctly adjusted.
