The previous owner of the truck I'm restoring never hooked up the e brake. I think the main reason was that the rear end had been changed out to a 12 bolt and they just never fooled with the ebrake hook up. I was wondering if anyone else has installed a custom e brake in thier AD truck and what did you use? The original e brake that was on the truck was all rusted up. But I was thinking about cleaning it up and trying to modify it so I would have a working e brake on the truck. The engine and tranny have been changed out also, the engine is a sb 400 and tranny is a th350. Thanks for any help and advice.
