Intermediate parking brake cable grommets?
They plug into holes in the carrier bearing cross member for the intermediate cable, has anyone found a nice alternative? If I remember right the hole is around .8".
If you're looking for original grommets and live in Brazil you're just in luckhttps://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/...Z83Am4wNKcSj_w

Re: Intermediate parking brake cable grommets?
Are you talking about the black plastic/nylon push in inserts that appear to be there to prevent cable wear when the parking brake is applied? If so I seem to recall finding some that were similar in the small specialty drawers at a hardware store. I don't recall if I ended up using them. They may also have been white. Sorry my memory isn't working very well, but I have an excuse it was 6 or 7 years ago, and I'm older than dirt. If I were near the truck, I'd run out and look.
EDIT: Damn, Randy types too fast...

Re: Intermediate parking brake cable grommets?
Nice, thanks everyone. I tried 34-3131 the other day, LMC's website was jacked up, but now they come right up. I was looking for grommets when it's a bushing. What makes a bushing and a grommet?
 I think the former has a sleeve Yeah Jim I think they were white. I found mine mostly black and in pieces, I spray-bombed the under-carriage long ago.
