Default e-brake assembly problems

Hey, my ebrake assembly collapsed on me * one of the retainer screws must have come off or bent anyway the whole assembly was flying around for a while... have a hard time getting the stuff back together without any good reference on what its supposed to look like, the FSM isn't all that helpful. I think I'm missing 1-2 parts the toggle lever isn't attached to the cable and looks like the pin that supposed to sit there isn't anywhere to be found. Anyone got any pointers? Pics on the assembly? Don't understand how the pin is held in place from the cable to the toggle lever either,

(7 on the above)

A link to a parts number list for specifically the pin and possible the toggle lever would be awesome!


I got new anti-rattle pin, retainer and anti-rattle spring (4,5,6) so far.

Thanks for the links

Anyone got any pics of the toggle lever? does it include the retainer pin connecting to the cable itself or is that a different part? I think I might need a new toggle lever since I'm guessing its missing a cover piece but unable to tell ...

This reply is years belated, but I bumped into the same problem and perhaps this will help someone.

I think you're referring to the pin that holds the fork of the parking brake cable in the lever assembly, and it is not included with the rear parking drum hardware kits.


It's exactly 6mm wide x 10mm in length. A 5mm width pin will be sloppy. An 8-9mm length pin will be sloppy.




There's a margin of error with my China Freight micrometer, but 6x10mm is what's needed.


The OE kit... absent the pin. AutoZone, O'Reillys and Dorman exclude it also.

Hit me up on Instagram and I can mail you one for $5 bones.
