Re: Emergency Brake for Lifted Blazer???

Or maybe extend the U cable that gets pulled on when you press down the e-brake lever. Then relocate the side brackets closer to the rear? My 4" lift still allowed them to work..getting parts from a longbed pickup sounds like a possiblity too...now that I have a 14FF w/disk I no longer have an E-brake...
good luck

Cool Re: Emergency Brake for Lifted Blazer???

Critter

I had the same issue with a 4" Rancho with new springs on my 72 K5. I took the cable brackets right off the frame and bolted them back onto the bottom flange of the frame. This was a few years ago, so I don't remember if I swapped the brackets from side to side, or if I used the original holes. It was free and did make the cables sit more comfortably. Hope this helps.
