Hi just the springs on the park brake itself that goes on the tranny

Hi guys does any one have a picture of the hand brake under the dash .My problem is when I engage the brake then release it the inner cable does not go back in place I can pull the cable from underneath the car back in to place but when I use it again it seams to get stuck back out again. Is it suppose to be locked in some how any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks Ed

Boy do I know how that feels .I had the same question asked to me at a A and W cruise in this summer .My 23 year old daugther was with me I though she was going to die laughing. My ply is a 48 IM 57 It just makes your day dont it

Try the rubber boot in the firewall .the one on my 48 was dry and causing the rod to stick

Best of luck and a speedy recover from canada
