While trying to remove/ replace the parking brake linkage I cannot separate the sections of rod that run beneath the cab. I have removed the cotter pins, but they dont seem to matter b/c the clevis pins do not move. Is this rust or is this operator error?
Thanks gents,

I guess the stainless replacement f/ Jim Carters is added to the list! | | | | | Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 257 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Dec 2005 Posts: 257 | I had the same problem when I took mine apart. Couldn't get them to move with heat, PB Blaster, and lots of force. But the 4" cutoff wheel did the trick. I needed to get that piece out of the way so I could ship the cab off to the sandblaster.
Replacements are on my list as well. | | |
