Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 30 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 30 | Does anyone know if the emergency brake cable (the one that goes from the e-brake handle inside the cab) from a C10 will work on a K10? The one on my '61 broke and I need to replace it, but all I can find are the ones for the C10s. I have a shortbed stepside.
Thanks!

Mine was broken as well. I purchased a repro from a place in Mass. None of the big guys have them. Your best bet is to get the correct length cable made up. ( It was a long time ago, I don't remeber the suplier or the measurement, but check back here in a while and maybe I can dig up the info.) Also, check for the original part number and see if it's available as NOS. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 30 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2002 Posts: 30 | Originally posted by k10:

I've been watching for one for a while, and I think that I may take the advice to find a source to have one fabbed locally. That probably makes the most sense, since it is a brake cable used to keep my truck where I left it - ha!
