I have heard that reversing at least 5mph and braking hard with the park brake pedal will reset or adjust the shoes. This would be a similar practice to ajusting brakes on older cars equipped with shoe type brakes (the type employed on the F-250 parking brake system). I have tried this with some success, but the pedal travel does not seem to change very much.

How do you adjust emergency cable in 2004 ford f250 supper cab?
good question. you do not adjust cable on emergency brake in 2004 f250. the emergency brakes are drum type brakes inside the rear brake disk on each wheel.if you know how o adjust drum brakes it is the same adjustment for emergency brake on this vehicle. on the back of the drum there is a small rubber cap. remove this cap and with a flat screwdriver or adjuster tool, you turn the the serated wheel inside the brake drum to adjust the brake shoes out till nearly touching the brake drum it is best to do this with the rear wheels jacked up off the ground, so you can spin the wheel while adjusting. by spinning wheel you will feel when brake shoe is starting to slow wheel and you will then know to stop adjusting. do this on both wheels if you over adjust you will burn brakes out and have to replace brake shoes. this is a pain as you have to remove the disk brake caliper and rotoar to get at the emergency brake
