Easy to do; Pull your rear wheels off, remove the rubber plug on the center section of the rear drums (the parking brake shoes are inside the drum), take the extra slop out of the adjuster with a screwdriver. Make sure you do this with the parking brake off and make sure can still turn the drum easily when you are done!
Replace plug, wheels, done.

Here's an unrelated post with photos that may help:
