Re : Park Brake Cables
You're welcome , I'm one of those old honest mechanics who hates crooks and unhappy Customers and with Chevrolet Light Duty Trucks , there is never , EVER any excuse for unhappy Customers .
O.K. , now you know that everything on the rear suspension (shocks etc.) is different because your truck was a special order (leaf springs) to work , not ride soft like a car .
As I said before : measure them then contact Adam, and he'll know what you need and have it On Hand .
Or , read the Hot Rod build threads and follow one with your wheel base and leaf springs , PM and offer to buy this unwanted take off cables...
What's wrong with the old ones ? most of the time unless frayed you just clean them well then soak in 1" of new anti-freeze in a HOSPITAL CLEAN plastic drain pan , occasionally pulling them to and fro to help work the coolant inside the Bowden part , once they begin to slide in and out easily you're set for life .
Remember : you have to have the brake shoes installed and bedded in then properly adjusted (no drag when rotating the wheel by hand dead cold) before you attempt to adjust the park brake cables .
