67-72 4wd frame
I am trying to find pictures of the parking brake spots on a 4wd frame. I have a rear leaf spring 2wd frame I am going to use to make my Suburban 4wd but I don't know how the parking brake works on a stock frame.
Could someone post some pictures of the locations? Please don't say to find a 4wd frame, finding a good 4wd Suburban frame is not an easy task. |

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
Sorry about the picture but you can see where the cable sits on the frame. In my hulk build I have a few pictures. It's about 12 pages in post 300 or so.
Hope this helps

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
So it uses a bracket instead of going into the frame, but what about the rest of the parking cables? Is there a rod on the other side, or do both cables from the rear come up the LH side and go to an equalizer?

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
Yes it does. I only used the front stock cable. Normally the intermediate goes in a loop. sorry I don't have a photo of a stock set up.

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
OK, thanks. It may be enough, I have a 14BFF and I am going to put Eldorado calipers on it, so I have to figure out what to do about the other cables anyway.
Hopefully someone else can chime in too. |

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
I stole this from another post.
I put Eldorado calibers also that is why I re-vamped the routing and had custom cables made from the caliper to the mount and decided to not pu the loop in. check out my build.

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
Thanks, sort of, but not really. Where does the rod go that is opposite the brake cable from the pedal?

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
Hey, another request, could you post a picture of the rear shackle hanger for the front spring and the shock mount for the front too?

Re: 67-72 4wd frame
One m ore request please, I can ask in the truck forum if necessary, but I was hoping someone could tell me the distance from the front spring location to the shackle hangar in the rear?
I got a DIY4x B52 kit on order, but I am not sure I want to use 52" springs. I have a set of square body front springs I kept from the truck I got my axles from. I am hoping I can potentially use those springs with the shackle hangars in the stock rear location. I am not sure it will put the axle in the proper location though with the pin in the spring. |
