Parking Brake Cable?
One of my Parking Brake Cables Snapped on me a while back... Not sure which side it is. The Little Metal Stopper at the end of the cable broke off. I am sure some of you have had this problem. My question is, Is that cable hard to replace? I am tired of Parking My Truck without a parking break, always makes me wonder if its gonna come out of gear when I am not around.
Thanks, Mark

Replace both cables.
I havn't done them on this truck, I only have info for 8.8.
So I don't know the tricks yet.
Or I did replace them and I dont remember what it was.
I know I replaced the front cable already.
I just dont remember if I did the rear cables.

They are pretty easy. Do replace them both like he said too. And if you got time take apart the parking brake lever and cam at the top and clean them all up and regrease. I hate dragging brakes!
