. next utilize a screwdriver and (below) break-off the small spring fingertips that keep the cable on backing dish.
I managed to get this role, as well as the rear cables at NAPA, but the section chap will state truly noted just for 73-87 1/2 tons. The 67-72 1/2 ton drum brake portion are all the same, thus don't be concerned. The original 1970 pub try found above for contrast.
Next, you've got to replace leading cable. Begin by backing off the equalizer addict. If the wiring weren't froze right up, I'd recommend starting here; but if they are rusted strong as mine happened to be, it generates no improvement. The crazy need 1/2 inches houses, and the the rest keeps houses for a wrench as you see under:
Right back the check nut off earliest, it will cut-through the grime, and wash it off, after that remove the adjuster fan. The existing peanuts will healthy the posts throughout the new front cable if you choose to recycle all of them.
. found in the fender really securing the cable tv. The 69-72 cable may have one more clip. Remove this video and.
Unclip the wire in which it goes through the structure right here. The cable tv is clipped into frame just like the back cable tv were used into the braking system backing dishes; you need to snap off the little springtime fingers with a screwdriver from the inside side of the structure.
Above, this image of brand new cable connected to the hands lever system will make clear eliminating the top of end of the cable tv through the cab. The leg lever attachment is similar. Just slice the older wire nearby the shackle
in which they attaches with the lever, loosen the clamp bolt and any other clamps, and extract they through opening in firewall inside engine area,
The shackle that attaches into lever is too huge to undergo the hole in firewall, when setting up the cable (below) start by threading this end through firewall gap.
. inside motor compartment and, routing they across the route with the original cable tv, on to the hole into the framework until.
Earlier, the after vista. Note brand new springs. Since my cab try a 67, I made the decision to use the 67-68 hand lever, the openings in my firewall are usually put up for this. Setting up the give lever had been effortless, as is changing the brake system.
To regulate the 67-68 parking braking system: Note, the service brakes should be correctly modified before attempting to regulate the parking braking system. Very first, pertain the hand braking system lever 4 clicks from full off, next set the changing addict until an average pull was sensed when spinning the trunk rims. Discharge and check that the braking system are completely relaesed; if you don't readjust. Tighten the check fan resistant to the adjuster addict,
The only real difference in the 67-68 in addition to 69-72 cables will be the 69-72 cable try much longer
To regulate the 69-72 vehicle parking braking system: identical to the 67-68 treatment except apply the leg braking system 1 mouse click from complete down.
Also note in these pictures you can view my personal brand new double exhaust program, in fact it is much better than the ratty old single set up I got prior to.
The underside picture compares the 67-68 steering column cover with the afterwards 69-72 sort
That is correct!! unique shoes the whole way around, brand new tubes, rebuilt all four wheel cylinders, and brand new adjuster peanuts right in front, as well as the outdated top adjuster crazy mounted on a corner. I have chosen which is how I'm planning handle the adjusters at each braking system task. Below are a few pictures (sorry, we only took photos regarding the top);
