I just replaced the cables and got the foot pedal working for the emergency brake on my 51 half ton chevy pickup . Does anyone know what was supposed to hold down the pedal when stomped down trying to set the brake??? Here is the next Question ,there is a large (looks) like a old bed spring between the pedal and the floor wrapped around the shaft, it returns the the pedal and does not set the brake. DID this come from the factory or WAS this my dad reminding me he was there like so many other things i have found while working on the truck. THANKS FOR ANY FEEDBACK BJF
