Emergency Brake Handle setup

Good morning everyone

I finally began to put my 1954 F100 back together. It has been a few years since I took it apart so I forgot how some things went together.

I am about to put my Parking Brake (emergency brake) handle back in and I forgot how it is assembled. Does anyone have an exploded view of how the sprocket, spring and gear are assembled? Nothing in the manual is detailed enough.

Thanks

Paul

Good news on your 54 F100 Paul, keep at it!
For help with your emergency brake handle reassembly get some part`s supplies catalogs. Some have very good details.

Bill, your truck probably had an emergency brake drum on the back of the trans.
