The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Installing emergency brake return springs

I finally got them on today. 90 degrees outside and humid so I sweated something fierce. I had the backing plates off the car and I hooked the spring around the lever and then twisted the lever around until it slid down into its place. Was still quite a pain but it's a hell of a relief when you finish both sides. Can't imagine doing this job with the body mounted. YIKES!
