1966 f100 custom cab. In process of frame off restoration. Going slow but it is going. In the process of removing all items from cab. Have figured out how to remove all items with the exception of the light switch assembly, emer flasher assembly and parking brake assembly.
1. How do you remove the light **** assembly from the dash. Do you remove the plastic pull handle ..and once bezel is loose push through the dash. How do you remove the plastic pull handle without tearing something up.
2. emer flasher pull switch ...again how do you remove this thing from the dash. Does not appear to have a nut to loosen the bezel.
3. emergency brake...were do you begin with this rascal.

Trying to remove items without to much distruction so to speak.
Always apprieciate the great advice this board has to offer.
thx.

 

light switch under dash on back of switch you will find a small push button push it down and pull handle out the front.
other ***** shoukd have small screws in the handles
after removing them should baable to see the nuts that hold the bezel
emergency brake I would start at the bottom

have some fun

 

WElCOME !!,
There is another type **** that has a small slot at the base, usually on the underside of the ****. My 65 wiper, and heater ***** are of this type. The cable shaft has a flat spot that insert into a corresponding metal clip in the ****. In order to remove the ****, need to release the tention by placing a mini screw driver, or something simular, does not take much to split the slot if not carefull, nothing too large. If able to look under there you will notice metal ring/clip and if apply small amount of pressure, if recall, towards the ****, it will slide off.

On my 65, there is a ball on the end of the brake cable that is routed to the brake handle assemble and inserts into a corresponding slot in the handle lever. The ball can be only be inserted when the handle and the groove are lined up. The pin is then inserted to prevent the handle from reaching the position where the ball can come out. It is a knurled type pin at the base of the brake assembly and can be difficult to pull out. Use caution, they can break off.

Also, if not familiar with ign. switch assembly and need to remove, place key in ign. turn to accessory position, insert paper clip in small hole and continue to turn key counter clockwise.

For info purposes, you will find on many of the electrical connectors have pins that can be remove in event need to remove, or replace harness. The turn signal harness comes to mind, I prefer removing the pins from connector then pull the harness thru the column rather than cut and later splicing. Welcome again.
