emergency brake cable

I have a good question,
I went down to Kentucky and bought a 1968 cab and fenders, now my orginal truck is a 1969 so the parking brake is on the foot operated and the 1968 is hand operated so i like the foot brake over the hand brake is there an easy way to switch from the hand brake to the foot brake? i no longer have the hand brake so i kinda need to figure this out! i have the cable going in to the cab but i forgot how to hok the cable to the foot brake, or if i can change it at all. thank for the advice steppside69

Hope you bought the hood, too.

As for the brake swap, try the search function, I know it's been discussed before.

good luck, scott

you have to move the fuse block and do some firewall mods for to switch it over, i was going to do this on my 67 but i decided against it.
