I have forgot to ask this question a few times I need a common part that breaks or fails on the parking brake and a part number please. I was using it one day and it snap it will go all the way down now and won't stay up and I had to tie it so my alarm won't beep does anybody know what part broke I can't seem to find what failed but it won't work any help would be appreciated thanks

You checked down the frame rail and the cable isn't snapped any where or stretched? Follow it from the pedal down the passenger frame rail all te way to the rear over the axle and make sure everything is in place I would start with that. Jmo

Ok thank you I appreciate you writing back I don't see anything hanging loose but I will double check

Yeah I would also look at where the cable is on the pedal it should almost loop over the e brake assembly maybe it popped off the track I'm not home right now to look at mine or I could offer some more help. I haven't crawled under my truck in a while.

How does the assembly work? Is there like a gear that holds the cable or tightens it or what? Cause it seems like it is a slip gear and now wants to stay down like the thing broke and I don't know if I need the whole assembly or I will check the cables again I just didn't know how it works

Yeah I can comment on exactly how it works I would assume there is some sort of gear mechanism that locks it. I just figured I'd point you in the right direction to start with te cables I'm still at work so I really can't comment on the assembly itself trucks parked at home.
