Right/Rear caliper removal and Handbrake Adjustment

[b_kennedy]

So today I removed the right/rear wheel and then proceeded to remove the caliper so i could then get to the hub as I need to adjust my handbrake for the MOT. Well after going through my odds and sods pile of bits I realised that the brake caliper key must have been in my chest which was stolen.

I drove a 45 minute round trip to halfords to get a new one to only find out that because its got such a big handle it doesn't fit because the suspension leg is in the way.

I am a patient man but by this point I was pretty p****d off.

Tomorrow morning I am going to go and get a 7mm Hex socket which will hopefully fit. Any other advise on this would be appreciated.

Can the handbrake be adjusted any where else?

Thanks
