Re: "Rice Rocket'

I had a world of trouble with my e brakes too. THe ones for my 68 were not even close. I ended up with two sets, Brake best, the cable was to long and the Wagner ones didn't have the correct length spring. So i took the springs off the longer cable and put them one the shorter cable.

E-brakes were the one thing my dad stressed since his truck rolled away from him when he was a kid.
