Handbrake (parking brake) Cable Replacement/adjustment 700 1989

Hi Guys,
just replaced a broken handbrake cable today, checked the part against the old one & they looked the same but now its installed and I have adjusted it up fully but it still will not engane the rear shoes. The cable seems slack at the rear but I can apply the rear brakes by pulling the cable at the axle. Did I get a wrong part or have I made a newbie error ? Can't seem to find anyone else with this particular problem . . .

tia,

Paul
