Title: Parking brake
Post by: Elizabeth West-Ownbey on May 14, 2016, 06:23:27 pm
On our 1992 MB the parking park cable to the rear passenger wheel is sticking.  Our mechanic cannot find a replacement cable.  Apparently Ford only has them for 1995+. Our mechanic says he's afraid if we engage the emergency brake it will not release! Ever!  He did find a company in the upper midwest that will make a cable but you have to send them the old cable and THEN they will quote a price.  Any ideas?

Elizabeth,
I just googled 1992 Ford E350 parking cable and got plenty of hits. About $25 or so. -- Jon

Elizabeth, go to RockAuto (http://www.rockauto.com) .  Select Ford, the year, model, and engine size.  Go to "Brake and Wheel"; several choices of parking brake cables are listed, most for about $5.00!
