Default How to adjust handbrake???

alright, my driveway is pretty steep ( i live on a hill) and when i park my handbrake is almost vertical and the car still creeps backward!! the only way i can leave it running is if i put two big rocks in front of the wheels (while in my my driveway that is). how do i adjust it so i can take up some of that slack?

all you need to do is tighten a nut. if you get underneith your car youll see a cable running to both your back brakes trace that till you see a nut and turn the nut
