Parking brake retainers
Please see the pictures included.
I am trying to find these retainer clips for the cables to lock into the backing plates. I got new correct year "supposedly" rear cables from classic parts but they look different. I have checked 4 different sites and no one has any retainers other then Brothers trucks but theirs looks like you would have to drill 2 holes. DO you guys have any suggestions on what to do to retain these cables properly? Does anyone have these parts or know where I can get the proper parts even if I have to buy another set of cables? Thank you Keith 62 C10 fleet long bed |

Re: Parking brake retainers
Got a picture of the end of the new cables? If they're made for your truck, they should have the correct part to hold into the backing plate

Re: Parking brake retainers
Here a snap shot of the 62 rear parking brake sold by Classic parts. It does not have the piece that mounts it to the backing plate.
If there is another company that sells the correct cable please send me the company name and or part number. I have checked five companies so far and all seem not to have an attachment to the backing plate. |

Re: Parking brake retainers
Let me ask.... Does the black tube slide down the cable and mount on to the backing plate somehow. Is it ment to function as a guide tube? It is not like the original if so. What do you clip it to the inside with. C clip or e clip??
Saw one on ebay and Brothers truck has the same. It says for 62 but it looks like there is a clamp that needs two screws to mount to backing plate . Rather not control holes Let me know your thoughts or any tips Much appreciated Last edited by keith808; 03-15-2023 at 12:36 AM. Reason: truck info |
