hmmmm seems to me that I have to only decent handbrake in the whole world, mine locks up really good. When I was younge and stupid late at night I used to do big long straight handbrakes before and over the top of pedestrian crossings, leaving skid marks over the white paint. I used to think it was hilarious, imagine walking up to it during the day and about to cross the road and there are two great big dirty skid marks over the white paint, well as I said that was a while ago.
To get a good hand brake loosen off the adjustment all the way out at the lever end. then go the the drums, adjust both sides so that when you spin the drum it spins around maybe once, just have enough drag but not enough to lock the brakes on. while your there check the wheel cylinders and make sure they are not leaking, inside the boot also. bang the wheels back on, jump in and have a pull......on the handbrake lever...(shaking my head, some of you have sick minds). if it needs anymore adjustment just do it on the inside adjuster.
Happy Handbraking
hope it helps.
