Removed the injectors and had them overhauled, refitted yesterday morning. Old ones were around 10 Bar too low opening pressure.
Engine has more torque now.
Also replaced the cheap ebay regulator for the 120W panel on the roof rack, occasionally it would glitch and the charge voltage would go too high up to 16.5V.. I fitted a redarc SRP0120 in a sealed polycarbonate box.Silver '04 KZJ120~Manual~GXL~Dobinson/Kings lift~Custom valved Ironmans~Detroit Locker~Endless Air~X9 Superwinch~Madman EMS1~TJM Dual Battery~Rhino Roof Tray~120W solar panel~Foxwing awning~Bushskinz UVP~Long Ranger water tank~Bushman fridge~Steinbauer P-Box~Beaudesert 2 3/4"~Airtec Snorkel~TJM Sliders~Prico Boost Gauge~BFG-KO2s~TPMS~GME TX3420~Front and Rear Cameras~Ultimate Camper hanging off the back!

Most times I would say that the hand brake adjustment gets done at the lever linkage end.
That is accessed under the center console, basically taking out the slack in the cables.
Same result, providing you still have adjustment there.
Adjusting the shoe clearance minimizes the travel of the shoes to the drum.
Parked on level ground.
Chock the front wheels so you can have vehicle in neutral and hand brake off.
Rear wheels off.
Supports under axle.
Locate the opening hole/adjuster access hole to BDC or about 6:00.
With a flat blade screwdriver you need to find the star wheel through the hole and lever aginst the hole to in effect turn the star wheel.
Turn the star wheel until tight, you will then not be able to turn the rear hub.
Back off the adjuster so that clearance is gained and you can again turn the hub.
Unfortunately I've found it best at this stage, to replace the road wheel with say just two nuts at this point to allow you to spin the wheel at pace to make sure you still have clearance of shoe and drum.
If not remove wheel and make the necessary adjustments.
Some pictures of components of the hand brake assembly.

Note the adjuster star wheel that I talk about sitting in the control joint in carport slab.

Note also the hole in the axle hub that aligns with hole in brake rotor, to allow adjustment of shoe clearance when holes are at BDC.

Hope this helps, really not that hard.
Cheers
