Parking brake cable - do they stretch?

Parking brake cable - do they stretch?
I've adjusted the parking brake on this max several times (brake pads/rotors were done just six months ago). I've now taken up all the adjustment at the handle and it's still not grabbing as hard as I like and has a lot of clicks to pull.
A quick glance and it all looked OK under there but I haven't had it jacked up yet for close inspection.
Do these cables just stretch over time? Or have I got another issue under there?
Thx.

I already had my y and cat off when I did mine. ~Was doing a few things at once, so idk if it's possible with the exhaust there firsthand.

You don't need to drop the CAT to remove it's heat shield. If you are doing it anyways then these are the 4 nuts & bolts you'll need for the CAT
I found that post using the search forum tool with these words 'CAT bolt size'
The stock cat should have studs and nuts, not bolts.
Either way, 12x1.25.
What do you mean by what size for the rest? Connect the catback to the cat, or connect the individual catback pieces to each other? If to the cat, then 12x1.25 nuts, if the rest of the exhaust, and it has regular drilled flanges then it doesn't matter what size.

12mm? That sounds WAY big. That's wheel stud size. I guess I'll get in there and see how it all looks. If the stock studs are good, I'll just refresh the nuts.

Yeah... I have to do the rear pipe and muffler anyway, so I'm thinking I'll just drop the cat refresh the bolts/nuts, and do it all at the same time. No sense being back under there again.

With all my new exhaust from the headers back I used antiseize compound on new SS nuts n bolts. Don't forget to use new gaskets.
