Afternoon all!
Poor old abused TD5 Defender has finaly got to the stage where the park brake need adjusting.
All previous Landrovers i have had have been pretty much self explanitary as to how its done. Little bolt on the park brake back plate, wind it in & happy days!.
This beastie is a bit different....Only way i can see how to adjust it is by adjusting the cable outer..
Is this right?

on the front/bottom side of hand brake back plate theres an adjuster you need a 17mm socket adjust that then adjust cable to suit, to adjust cable undo the 2 lever bracket to seat box bolts and pull assembly forward so cable adjusting is easy
