. subsequently need a screwdriver and (below) break off the little spring fingertips that keep the cable toward backing plate.
I acquired this role, also the backside wiring at NAPA, but the parts chap will state truly listed limited to 73-87 1/2 tons. The 67-72 1/2 great deal drum braking system parts all are the exact same, thus don’t be concerned. The initial 1970 pub is revealed above for review.
Then, you’ve got to exchange the front cable tv. Start by backing-off the equalizer fan. If the wiring weren’t froze upwards, I would recommend beginning right here; but if they’re rusted good as mine had been, it creates no change.
Back once again the check addict off basic, it will cut-through the grime, and washed it well, next eliminate the adjuster addict. The existing peanuts will suit the threads regarding the new front cable tv if you decide to reuse them.
The actual only real distinction between the 67-68 therefore the 69-72 wires is the 69-72 wire is actually much longer

Mounting the hands lever had been simple, as got changing the brakes.

Launch and check your brake try totally relaesed; if not readjust. Tighten the check fan up against the adjuster addict,
To adjust the 69-72 parking braking system: identical to the 67-68 procedure except apply the toes brake 1 click from complete down.
