Question parking brake cable replacement
can someone tell me best way to replace the front cable on a 01 e150? it looks like it disappears into the frame rail behind the tire and could be interesting to get out..should i fish a line through the frame to pull the new one through? thanks in advance. dennis

When I replaced an E150 brake cable I don't recall any trouble fishing the cable thru the frame. What I do remember is that it was a PITA to connect the new cable to the foot pedal.
