Re: 67 6-luggers

6869704x4 -- I have to head to Cincy tomorrow but I used the original 67 ebrake system entirely. I did remove 3" of coils on the drum end with sidecuts--took a while. I shortened the back loop cable 13.5 inches and preloaded the 83 camaro calipers e-brake arms - but not to the point of unacceptable drag. I moved the trailing arm cable brackets---just made new ones--- toward the front for straighter transition. Let me know of any exact pics you want. Pics above show most all. Parking brake seems to work easiest if you apply the brakes when pulling the handle. They will never be as good as the drum e-brake but should pass inspection. Thus a parking brake....
