Need e-brake linkage
 
I'm trying to fix the emergency brake on my 68 short step side w/rear coils. Turns out somewhere along the way, a previous owner removed that whole contraption that's supposed to be under the truck and a plain cable installed in it's place. That didn't work. So if anyone has the complete lever and spring assembly (in working order) and as many of the cables that I'll need, I'd like to hear from you. A handle cover would be nice, too.

What parts do you need?
Starting from the cab, there is the handle assembly, the first cable, the second cable which goes from first cable to trailing arms, and then the levers inside the rear brakes.

I can get all of this for you if you want. Let me know!!

Looking at the picture Golden State Parts sent me from their assembly manual, there is supposed to be a lever assembly (I think it's called the idler linkage) that sits between the frame rails. I haven't crawled under a complete truck yet to confirm this. I don't even remember seeing the slots in my frame for this. I have more research to do, obviously. Scott

screwy
 
I think you're right John. Their picture doesn't look anyhting like my frame. What came out was a piece of wire rope 65" long. I think that's all I really need.
