Re: Dug's 1959 Fleetside

More e-brake stuff. Drilled the back of the cab and routed the cables thru the wall in order to see if the e-brake actually works. It does. Holes will get grommets. The plan worked pretty good. Connect the cables with the unit loose and upside down. Fortunately, the brake mechanism allows you to flip a switch and pull the cable out in order to reach the cables from the wheels. Once you get it back in, flip the switch back and it ratchets into place. You can see I have decent clearance between the brake handle and the shifter when in Drive.

Cab comes off next and I replace passenger floor, both steps and both cab corners. dug
