PM me instead. When I'm not driving my XC90, I'm busy being a deposed Nigerian prince who needs help accessing illegally seized funds in my family's Swiss account. I'll make it worth your while.

A standard parking brake in good condition will lock the rear wheels with 2 clicks of the pedal .

I put the ones from the older S70 Volvo cars. These must be set once the rear brake disc is put back, we use a screw driver through a hole in the disc to set the adjusters. I have to say I am not impressed with the results. If there is anything, it will take away that 'free' move until the shoes lock the wheel. But this does not last long and soon it will be like before. As Clan says, if the handbrakes are not strong enough, the problem is somewhere else, and these adjusters - at least on my car - may not give much of an improvement
