Does anyone have a picture of a parking brake attached to the rear brakes? I've got the cable, I'm just not sure how to install it since my truck didn't come with parking brake cables on either side.

OK, don't know what year or size your truck is so, your mileage may vary. This article and pics are for a '55 1st series 3100 (half-ton)

just hooked mine up this past week but sorry no pics. the parking break lever is behind the shoe and pivots on one end. the other end has a "u-shaped slot/bracket" on it. your new cable should have a spring on it with a metal end piece. pull the spring back sway from the metal end piece and expose the cable and then push the cable into the slot and then release the spring. you have to be holding your mouth just right! is that clear as mud?
