Parking Brake

I am having a time trying to get my rear brakes adjusted for the parking brake . The braking in normal driving is fine I went trough and redid the rear brakes , the parking brake cable is tight but this model does not have the adjusting nut where the single cable ties into the 2 rear . The truck is a 96 f350 straight drive , and the only issue is when I try to launch my boat at the landing on that steep of an incline , there holding but not enough . I have have tried to tighten each drum a little more but then they start to drag . Any answers w/tout adding disc brakes.
