Parking brake fail

[BlueWaffle]

I can put my parking brake to the floor and the truck still rolls. Can anyone tell me how to tighten it back up? I have disc brakes in the rear if that matters.

Yes there are discs in the back, but the parking brake is actually a set of drum brakes within the rotor. You have to go in and adjust them like you would the old drum brakes to get your e-brake back.

yup star wheel adjusters at the bottom but I had to replace my shoes and sand the drums to get mine to hold really well

adjusted the star wheel super tight.....and it still didn't hold. have to rip the stupid thing apart and get after the shoes.

It is probably frozen up. My F450 is doing the same thing right now.

I had to replace the cable on mine. Then I've had to adjust the parking brake shoes 3 times since so I think those little star wheels come loose real easy.
