Install parking brake cable chevy c10 

Thanks for watching man take it easy

@@Gibson63. Hey, I was stuck and worried I was never gonna get past the mess I had. when you laid it out, like you did I was able to get past the hump. This was on a long box fleetside, still have it, It's a bit of a rat but I love it, makes me smile every time I drive it. Thanks again.

I'd like to see the mirror video also, I need the measurements.

@Ronald Steveson > Ronald, with the trailing brake shoe removed, and lever exposed it is easy to install the cable ball crimp end. First, get a good set of pliers to fit the crimped end, next to it, place a pair of side cutters against the side of pliers. Squeeze the side cutters so they pass thru the spring, gently grabbing the cable (Don’t worry, it can’t cut) then as a fulcrum, pivot the side cutters & pliers together. This pulls the spring back, holding the side cutters, slide & hook the ball onto the lever. I did it that way for over 40+ years, you cannot scratch the cable. To get the cable fitting out of the backing plate, take a 1/2” 12 point combination wrench, place it over the cable with the handle of the wrench facing away backward. Tap with a hammer and the box end of the wrench will close the fingers of the parking brake cable fixture, wiggle as needed, comes right out. Note, if reusing, spread the finger out a little with flat blade and push into until it snaps. Easy. Shoes have wear points & held onto the backing plate. They were $3 in the late 60’s and worn ones were replaced. Today, take an angle grinder, carefully dress 3 pads on leading side & 3 on trailing. Apply high-temp PTFE brake grease to each spot with a dime size. Install shoes normally. Digital photo helps but remember, the long friction is alway facing backwards, short friction faces forward. It contact the drum, rotate at the bottom backward, pushes long friction into drum, stops. Same on both sides so I.D. shoes, set on ground in place for each side. Long is back, short is front. I have 400 horse ponies and don’t need disc on rear. Too dam expensive and never last as long as shoes. Believe me! ASE Master Tech since 1978 - Retired

I got the complete Power steering set up through( Early classic) restoration & suspension

OK. I’ll definitely have to look into that. Hopefully, they sell just the hoses. I converted mine to power steering back in the early 90’s, but back then the conversion “kit” consisted of two plates that allowed you to mount a modern steering gear to the frame and a short piece of pipe for shortening the steering shaft. Finding a gear box, pump and hoses was the responsibility of the truck owner. Not exactly my definition of a “kit”. Thankfully, things have come a long way since those days. I found stuff and made it work, but it doesn’t look anywhere near as clean as your setup.

I figured it out, love the vids

Thanks man

Not all parts from Napa but you can get most of them there. Ebay and inline tube
