All nuts and bolts for any vehicle has a torque spec( for a racher I think it's 47 ft-lbs.). from the manufacturer a torque wrench is the suggested way, but everyone I know just uses a 1/2 cordless impact gun.

How do you tighten the chain on a Honda rebel?

Start by removing the rear brake lever. After that loosen the rear axle. The 17 mm nut is the only one that will spin, as the axle is essentially a big bolt. Once the axle is relatively loose, begin adjustments using the adjustment nuts on either side of the frame. There should be two separate 10 mm nuts on either side. Tighten the first on until your chain has the appropriate amount of slack (roughly 5/8''-1"). After you have them adjusted to where you want them, make sure both sides are evenly tightened. This will prevent wobbles and excessive tire wear. When you are finished with that, tighten the second 10 mm nut until it hits the first one snugly. Tighten up your axle, then put your rear brake back on. The rear brake will probably require adjustment when you are finished.

How do you tighten the parking or emergency brake on a 1986 Toyota pickup?

Crawl under the truck on the driver's side. You will see a cable with a "turnbuckle" heading to the rear axle housing. Within this "turnbuckle", you will see two nuts on a threaded rod....loosen the furthest to the rear, this is known as a lock-nut. Then tighten the forward nut until the brakes hold to satisfaction, then tighten the rear nut up against the front nut, you will need two wrenches for this. once tight, you should be "good to go".
