PB Trailing Arms + Parking Brake
Those of you with PB trailing arms, what are you doing for a parking brake?
There are no tabs on the arms to feed the cables through like the stockers have. I thought about cutting the tabs off of the stock arms and tigging them to the PB stuff but if you guys have a different idea I'm all ears. Thanks, Jon

Re: PB Trailing Arms + Parking Brake
You should be able to work out something with the shaft collars from McMasters. Do a search on the forum regarding how some members are attaching the wheel sensors from Accuair to the tubular trailing arms using the shaft collars; you may find this to be a more reasonable option for mounting the rear parking brake cable to the tubular trailing arms. No welding required - just a little ingenuity.

Simply type "shaft collar" in the search engine, select the 67-72chevytruck.com radio button and select the goggle option. You may find this to be a more reasonable option for mounting the rear parking brake cable to the tubular trailing arms. No welding required - just a little ingenuity.
