I found my 11 year old receipt and I had bought one from American Classic Truck Parts, #ME156 '47-'55 Emergency brake cable.

I'll buy a pair and grease them up really good for use in the dd/only vehicle.

Can someone measure the length of their original Clevis Pins? Mine seem exceptionally long and produce a binding of the cable when the emergency brake pedal is released. Are these available from a hardware store? I'll have to check them out at the store armed with thread pitch/inch and bolt end size.
