Parking Brake Adjustment 01TL How To?

Hi

Replaced the rear rotors and pads -Hawk hps- and inspected the parking brake shoes. Found the star wheel at the bottem but not sure best way to adjust. Looks impossible! Must be a secret trick to make it easy.

Tried backing the car up and applying brakes, did not seem to help. They need to be a bit tighter, not holding the car when put in drive.

Also read the owners manual, it states Parking brake should be applied BEFORE shifting into park, this keeps tension off the associated parts in the tranny, for those who have questioned how and when to use the park brake.

Thanks for any help.

Tom
