92 camaro new brakes and ebrake still no adjusted
 
Hey guys i just replaced my brake shoes and the drums are within specs. I have to adjust the e brake but i wondered if this setup was liek that of foot brakes where ther eis a turnbuckle under the car or was there another adjustment

iIf I reacall correctly Im pretty sure there is no adjustment on the cable on the 92 camaro. Alot of times the cable stretched making the ebrake not engage all the way. You probably need to buy new cables.

They don't have the threaded end up above the driveshaft??

The older third gens did but I'm not sure what year they did away with it.

They must have left some sort of adjustment method.

ADJUSTMENT

1. Jack up both rear wheels.
2. Apply parking brake three notches.
3. Tighten adjusting nut until left rear wheel can just be rotated rearward but is locked when forward rotation is attempted.
4. Release parking brake and check to ensure rear wheels rotate freely in either direction with no brake drag.

NOTE: Make sure the rear brakes are adjusted properly before attempting to adjust the parking brake. Refer to Brake Shoe / Adjustments
That's for drum brakes, lulz.

91-92, maybe 90, dont have that tunnel adjustment. My 86 does, my 92 does not.
