Parking brake cable routing

I posted this over in the 1999-2016 Super Duty thread. Havent gotten one reply. This forum seems to be super helpful.

I just cut mine off of my parts truck not too long ago but it looks to me like you have the driver's side there where the two from the rear meet up with the one from the front. It looks like that bracket that the top one is laying on is the spot where they convene. If I am correct there should be two holes in that bracket and the ends of those brake lines should feed through the holes then connect to a 'T', that the front single cable connects to. The cables that I took off had plastic retainers on them that slid through the holes and clicked into place to hold them in there. Does that help any?

Mark has a pretty good description of how it goes together, but I am not sure that is what you are asking in your post on the 99-16 forum.

If you would like, I can get some pictures of the unions/brackets and routing on my 2000, but I don't think that will help much.

A couple of years ago I had to replace the front and intermediate cables along with the pedal assembly in order to have a proper functioning E-brake system.

The length of the driver's side cable is at least a foot longer than the passenger side. I'm looking to replicate the 2008 cable configuration. Similar to this 07.

Been looking in every parking lot I get by for a 08-10 to get a picture...there just aren't any.

The picture above is NOT how my 2000 is, but I am sure you already knew that. 2008 was a bad year for Ford Super Duty...

Maybe post something in the 6.4 section https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum169/
