I am trying to replace some missing parts in the parking brake system of my ranch wagon. I need the cable that goes from the equalizer rod to both rear wheels. I also need the equalizer rod. I found both at macs but looking at the pictures of both,I can't figure out how the cable would hook up to the rod.
If I'm not mistaken,the threaded part of the rod connects to the cable but I don't see how that can be. I know that this is asking too much but I was wondering if any of you could (whenever you can) look at the 2 parts and than tell me if they can be connected together.I don't want to order both and than find out that they will not work in my wagon. Here are the part #'s for both.
Cable- 49-27102-1
Equalizer Rod= 49-29668-1
Thank you very much for your help.
