it probably hasn't been covered because it's in just about every manual =

and then pull up the lever itself, you will see 2 cables connected by 4 =
bolts to a plate that goes on a hook type thing on the lever. if you =
loosen the locking bolts you can tighten down the adjusting bolts to =
adjust your e-brake. just remember to tighten the locking bolts back =
down when you're done.
