I was wondering if anybody on here knew how to tighten the e-brake cable, or if it is even adjustable...

i was missing a nut too, it's an m6 (metric size 6) coarse thread. you can get them anywhere, hardware store, even auto parts stores sell them in packs of 6. i'd recommend putting a washer underneath both of them to prevent the nuts from getting jammed (if there isn't one there...mine didn't have one).

i can take a pic of the setup if you'd like.

Where are you planning on putting the washer mate? OK Have one betweek the handle and the nut, but not between the nuts as the whole point of having 2 is that they jam together, then they don't work themselves loose.
