i have to push my rear brake all the way down and it still barely works, and i was wondering how to adjust it, is it just the jam nut
Thanks

it is hydraulic, it self adjusts, you most likely need new pads and/or have low fluid with air in the lines

Have you put a parking brake on/ or took your orginal one off? Sounds like you need a seal, then need to bleed your brakes.
