    Parking brake is integrated into rear caliper. Check pads and calipers for proper FUNCTION - BEFORE making any adjustments.- Generally, barring mechanical fault(s) , that type is self-adjusting with normal use.

    actually, if you have to ask if you could do your brakes...that means you cannot do your brakes.
