I believe I read in the install instructions for my rear brake kit that our car's parking brake is self adjusting. What kind of adjustment are you trying to make?

I've heard (and done) that if you go in reverse at 10mph and pull up the handle, it's supposed to tighted the e-brake back up. However, one of my mustang buddies said all this does is binds it up and won't work. Best bet is to get a new cable, because they stretch over time..
