I am about to start throwing wrenches around!
I can not figure out how to get my stock drum parking brakes adjusted correctly. I get them to the point where the feel like they're grabbing but on the driveway the rig is still able to roll when out of gear. I've adjusted them every which way I can figure and I've never gotten them to feel like they're going to hold the rig. Twice now I've gotten it where it feels right but its like I can push the e-brake pedal too far down, where it is grabbing right until the last minute and the pedal over travels its sprocket, then it will never grab again. I've also tightened the cable adjuster to the point where the brakes are engaged when the pedal is not depressed. I'm getting frustrated - anybody else ever have this kind of problem?
Anybody local feel like bringing their rig over for me to compare with? There's plenty of cold beer here!
