Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 | I have a 1951 3600. My factory assembly manual shows that a spring is connected between a hole in a part of the frame crosspiece close to the end of the parking brake pull rod assembly and a metal tab on the back half of the rod assembly. I think the short beds have a one piece pull rod and the long bed like mine is a two piece rod assembly. I do not have that tab on the pull rod, and don't remember seeing one there during disassembly. Does anyone know where else the spring might be installed? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 | The "S" piece and spring I have. Still not perfectly clear on where the other end attaches to the clevis. I'll get under the truck tonight and look, but if anyone has a pic showing the spring installed at both ends I would appreciate it. Thank you Brad for the response. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,597 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,597 | It just hooks into the clevis, that's all there is to it. There is a spring, long wire piece with a "U" bend on each end and the "S" piece. "S" piece through hole, then spring, then the wire to the spring and directly into the clevis. They all line up as shown. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 38 | Got it Brad. Thank you for helping me out. | | |
