Denny; Hi, just wanted to ask you a question about the parking brake. In your picture of the parking brake spring and rod, how long is the wire hook between the spring and the clevice? Mine was missing the wire hook, but I have the rod and the spring is still attached to the frame. I grew up not to far you, (get this, the towns name was "Bulpitt, Illinois"). It was a coal mine town about 30 miles south of Springfield, population 250.
