Parking Brake Cable

[markeb01]

I had the same exact problem with my 1960 GMC 1/2 ton. Had the adapter clamps but no way to attach the spring fingers. I looked at every vehicle in several junkyards with a Dana 44 rear axle hoping to find backing plates with a conventional hole for the parking brake cable.

I finally gave up and had my son fabricate custom brackets that bolted into the original 3 holes. They had a washer/bracket welded in place for the standard spring finger style ends to snap into. I thought it was a Dana 44 issue. I guess it's a GM doing something weird issue.
