E-Brake Cable Install

Post by irontwist »

W-200 I'm installing emergency brake cable from equalizer to right rear brake and need to know how and what position the 2 cable clamps attach to Spicer 60 differential carrier cover. It will be great having a e-brake. Thanks

For the brake cable, don't those clamps attach to the frame cross member
above the axle?

My W-200 never had the right rear cable so I had no idea where the to cable clamps attached, I will look for those attachment points that was pointed out in the last reply. The used replacement cable that I bought came from a Power Wagon with the clamps so I should see on the truck where they go? Thanks

Figured it out when I found the two holes you spoke of. Thanks for your response.
