Could some one tell me how to adjust the handbrake cable it is to high and I want to lower it a bit inside the car.
I have had a look under the car and I can not see where the hell you adjust the cable,it certainly is not like the old days, I can not find a bolt anywhere that adjusts the cable.
Any help would be appreciated.:headbang:

You need to do it at the wheels. Theres a drum setup inside the disc If you are familiar with H series holden drum brakes it looks VERY similar. Can be adjusted with wheels on but much easier with wheel and disc off.

The cable can also be adjusted under the handbrake lever cover.

Best not to adjust it here, the adjustment needs to be done at the drum, or all you end up doing is stretching the cable
