What do you mean by "parking brake complete? To me it means everything from the front to the back (handle to rear brake drum parts)

Just the cable set, from handle to wheels....tried Macs and Carpenter without any luck. Thanks

Try this EvilBay Seller - He seems to have an extensive supply of NORS. He shows the front cable but may also have the rear also.

Or you can have them made - https://bruinbrakecables.com/

A little side note....funny how the name has changed from "emergency brake" to parking brake over the years. I have used it in an emergency! Coming off the interstate hit the brakes on my 73 F100 and the pedal goes to the floor. Nothing! Used the emergency brake to stop the truck and to get it back to the house. Do that with today's "parking brake"?
