Hello guys,
As I stated in my first post on the Introductions thread, I am a first time Ranger owner. Also as I said in that post, I got my "Frankie" off of a friends family member for $500. It had some issues, but it ran. The reason I got it at such a price, is because my friends family member (being an older woman) could no longer press the clutch.
It had been wrecked, but my friend and I replaced the front bumper, the grill, the trim that ran across the front, the drivers side headlight assembly, and the drivers front fender. At this point, I also knew that I had to replace the rear brakes, and had looked underneath to check the parking brake cable, and it was disconnected right around the back of the cab.
So far, I've been driving it with no parking brake. I've just been leaving it in first when I park. When I ordered the brake parts from the parts store (I used O'Reillys as that was the lowest price I could find), I also ordered the cables to hook up the parking brakes. I'm currently trying to figure out how to get them hooked up, but I'm not sure how they are supposed to go.
Would anyone happen to know, or have a diagram that they could share that I could use to help me hook them up?
