  Q: How to inspect and replace parking brake cables on a Toyota Supra?

  A: To inspect and replace the parking brake cables on a vehicle, start by raising the vehicle and securing it with jack stands. On 1982 and later models, remove the rear wheels and Brake Discs. Disconnect the cable from the Brake Caliper or brake backing plate by squeezing the cable retaining clip and pushing it out through the opening in the backing plate. Remove the two cable brackets by releasing the retaining bolts. Disconnect the cable at the equalizer and pull it free. For the equalizer-to-brake lever cable, remove the console or trim around the parking brake lever. With the lever in the down position, remove the locknut and adjustment nut and detach the cable from the lever. From underneath the vehicle, pull the cable out and through the cable guide, then disconnect it from the equalizer. To reinstall, apply a thin coat of grease to the portion of the cable that contacts the equalizer.

  Q: How do you adjust the parking brake cable?

  A: To adjust the parking brake, start by pulling the parking brake lever all the way up and counting the number of notches it travels. Compare this number to the specifications provided. If it is incorrect, the parking brake needs to be adjusted. Before adjusting, make sure that the rear brake shoe clearance has been adjusted. Next, remove the console or trim around the parking brake lever. Loosen the locknut and turn the adjusting nut until the travel of the lever is correct. Remove the lock and adjusting nuts to free the Parking Brake Cable from the lever. Finally, tighten the locknut and replace the console or trim.
