This weekend's project is installing a Lokar handbrake on my '73 CJ5 for the same reason the JF guy did. This thing didn't come with any of the e-brake hardware and I'm getting stuck with trying to keep the cable hooked to the bracket inside the rear drum. The Haynes manual isn't much help either. Does anyone have a picture of theirs or can direct me to how this goes together inside? Thanks in advance.
That's a great resource! It's that spring on the end of the cables inside the drum that I'm missing. I ordered two new cables but neither came with those springs and I don't see them listed anywhere else. Do you know where I can find them?there should be a spring right on the cable coming thru the backing plate. Pull it back and slip it on the 'hook' on the ebrake lever in the drum...
check HERE for a pic. go to the supplements at the bottom, select group 8, then when the PDF opens, scroll down to page 15. there is an exploded parts view of the emergency brake system.
