Does anyone have any photos of the parking brake configuration on an A body? I would really appreciate it!!

I'm getting ready to relocate my 66 Dart from my folks' house to my new house and need to at least hook up the parking brake in case it gets away from us. It's been so long since I took it apart, that I kind of forgot how it's supposed to go together.

Thanks a lot!!!

Thanks a lot. Those certainly help, but I was looking more for a few shots of the way the cables run remember a bracket welded to the drivers rear frame rail. From there, I can't really remember much. Was there a J-hook that attached to the floorboard??

Reassembly is one of the best reasons to buy the FSM. Here is the cable routing from my '75 factory service manual. Should be quite close. If I remember correctly the j hook and I believe it goes in a hole in the trans crossmember.

Thanks for the heads up. Where can I buy a FSM for a 66 Dart? Your parking brake routing looks to be a bit different than mine.

They say there are no such thing as a stupid question.
They say there is always the exception that proves the rule.
Don't be the exception.
