Parking cables can't balance!

[Philip Gao]

Hi Guys
The Ram got the cable fall down, replaced new parking brake assembly, left is the Mopar's, right side use OEM few parts, and replaced two side packing brake cables, and two cablese's length match the old cables.
Adjust the following connectors, let the cable a little short, so the cable not fall down when the parking brake release.


But the problem is: when parking brake pressed to bottom, the left side wheel is locked, but the right side(passenger side with a long cable) can't be locked.
The left side can move around 2.5cm, works good; But the right side move only 2CM, and still can't be locked,


I have adjust the parking screw like the following image, and in the first image, the nut is fully close the A point, let the left side cable the longest position, hope the two cable can move together, but it still right side can't be locked, the wheel can be push rotator with a hand, even the cable hook moved 2cm
Is there something I did wrong? I'm afraid the right side rebuild with few different parts, but the drive side because totally be destroyed, so replaced by an Mopar parking brake assembly, like the last iamge

It sounds like you didn't adjust parking brakes right you said the nut is fully closed like the picture youtube a quick vid on how to adjust drum brakes same thing.

I have adjusted the inner gear, it has made the tire a little stick. following some images:
Passenger side parking brake hook:

driver side hook:

I intentionally shorten the main cable like following, let the cable not fall down, it's about short 15mm


it was like this:


I guess two things could do:
1) make the main cable shorter, and let the the passenger side cable move more
2) there some problem in the following part, hope next time brake maintaining I can check it

I don’t think there should be two springs on those shoes like there is .Something looks wrong with that pic.
