'79 CJ5, 258 I6, T150 w/Dana20, Dana30 front and AMC20 rear. My first Jeep! I'm looking forward to doing some minor upgrades and restoration while enjoying the ride.
About the only cable I can find for an old CJ (79) are the two brands we try to stay away from. So what are you guys running for Emergency Brake cables when you need to replace them?
 
I took out my e-brake pedal because my roll cage blocked it and my replacement body tub was not drilled for it. Also did not like the cables hanging to get snagged. Replaced with an electric one but did not like the price. Found an used one on e-bay and it works great. It was from a Cadillac but did not take a lot of work to adapt it. Had to make brackets and some wiring. example here-->> https://www.ebay.com/itm/2013-2017-...brand=Cadillac&_trksid=p2047675.c100008.m2219
Both of the two brands are about all your going to find unless you have a cable made...
 
CJ, that's definitaly an option I will look into, I like it, thanks.
