Perhaps it is time to make some gauge blocks. . . this edited factory diagram may be helpful:

Biggest issue with park brake creep is down to pre load in the system, or lack of. As Michael has posted, those tools are a must (in my opinion) my last carrier turned and stopped perfectly, and I didn't suffer the creep...... again as per Michael, I always got best results breaking the tracks and fine tuning the system.

what green did you use on your hull ?
