Brakes problem
1995 Ford Ranger 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 450K + miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My dad and I resently fixed a leak in my breaks on my truck. Since we worked on the truck my emergency break does very little. Do I need to adjust something with the emergency break, or could it be something else? If I need to adjust the break, how do I do this?

if you fixed a leak in the rear brakes and removed the rear brake drums you will have to adjust the shoes back again. there is a star wheel in the lower part of the brakes that turns adjusting the shoes tighter
