I had to put a couple of washers on the cable bolt holding it onto the handbrake as the cable was stretched a little.
Relatively new shoes and new disc/drum the washers worked a treat pulling the cable a few mm tighter now got 4 clicks solid handbrake.
HI John.
As above it will be the compensator that as stretched not the front cable or the rear cables as they are to robust to stretch, i have not seen any cables stretched in the last 11 years since doing HB
