Default Re: No Emergency Brake

If it is an 8 or 9 inch rear inch rear used used in the 60's and up Fords, most cables from 49 to 90's (and maybe later) should ft. I have a 54 Ford with a 9 inch rear (57) and the 54 cables "bolted" right up with no modification.

In my 48 Ford with an 8 inch rear, I am using the stock brake handle with the cables off the rear (68 Mercury Montego). I did have to make a bracket to hold the back end of the stock front cable which I bolted to the floor pan.

Look for cable off a Mustang, Fairlane or most any Ford product. They do come in different lengths so make sure what length you need. In my opinion, the ones that are one piece are the easiest to work with. You also need to make brackets to hold the end of the outer cable to the frame or floor pan
