Re: The Snortin' bull
Do you have any pics of your parking brake install? Was curious if you used the factory rear cables? I went to their website and the prices for their stuff isn't bad.

Re: The Snortin' bull
I have not installed the frt. cable and handle yet.I did install original cables in rear,The first rear cables that I ordered from LMC are incorrectly listed,NAPA still offers the correct for pre 63. I will show the install when it comes about.

Re: The Snortin' bull
I had read this on the forum and you do have to open up the hole behind each lamp on the headlamp retaining plate's.

Re: The Snortin' bull
Check straps or door stops. Using the jeep one's to do the mod at Crown jeep parts. Look close at the boxes the factory number is on them. These fit the later trucks pretty easily. Though take a little work to fit to the 60-63.lOOK close the originals are split bracket to rubber stop. Original pins fit also.

Re: The Snortin' bull
The jeep door straps do take some work. Nothing major. the original holes in the door shell need to opened slightly. I used a RH angle drill with a step bit in thru the inside of the door shell.. The pivot bracket on the pillar is best I think to be split ( cut ) in half and than slightly thin down the jeep strap to fit better .
