Personally, I always leave my vehicle in gear when parking, as an added safety precaution- should the handrake fail whilst it's parked, the engaged gear acts as an extra brake. 1st gear is best, or (if pointing downhill) reverse- but ALWAYS remember that you've left the vehicle in gear before you set off again!!

After replacing the parking brake shoes brake shoes calipers rotors the parking brake will not hold why is the parking brake not functional on a 2001 Suburban?
The parking brake needs adjusted, Look under the drivers side body and you will see 1 long cable coming from the front of the cab and running towards the rear close to the frame and just behind the cab or were the bed panel starts you will see that cable going to a bracket that has a long stud- bolt in it and then you will see 2 cables that head towards the rear wheels. Tighten the nut or stud that's in the bracket, and it will start to tighten the 2 cables that go to the parking brakes in the rear. Adjust it a little at a time tell the parking brake in the truck starts getting tighter and until it holds the truck from moving. If you adjust the cables to tight then the parking brakes will drag NOT GOOD. When you think your done and the parking brake is kinda hard to push and it will hold the truck from moving. Check yourself by putting your truck in neutral with parking brake off. And it should roll, If not then loosen cable up a little till it does roll free when not ingauged.
