Front Parking Brake Cable
Hey everyone,
I am having the hardest damn time removing/installing the front parking brake cable on my 2003 Ford Ranger to the parking brake pedal assembly. Is there a trick I do not know about?It looks like I should just be able to slide it over and pull it out but that doesn't seem to be the case.
Thanks for the help!
