1969 A12 CAR missing a spring inside the e brake housing ( not the pull release rod spring ) does anyone have a pick of the spring so I can search a replacement ?? Thanks !!

........I found it MOPAR part number 1556693 spring. I saw it available at MEGA PARTS .

Hmmm, is that in the e-brake pedal assy ?? I was just installing mine today and thinking a spring must be missing because the pedal doesn't stay all the way up.

i had trouble getting my e-brake working correctly on my 69 charger when i installed replacement cables because the originals were completely rust frozen due to not being used.
as it turned out, i had to add a small section of spring to the driver's side cable where it is inside the drum, attached to the apply lever.
also, i had to re-rout the passenger side cable because routed in the factory location, it bound up and wouldn't release.
and finally, as a "help", i installed a return spring at the cable mounting point on the driver's side frame rail, which attaches to the main cable bracket that hooks both cables together at the adjustment screw end of the main cable.
the e-brake works as it should now, smooth to apply and release, as well as holding the car stationary on a sloped surface without being in park.
dorman was the cable brand i used, so i don't know if my "fixes" only apply to this brand or not.
just my personal life experience fixing my e-brake.
your mileage will vary.

....yes ther is a small spring that makes the ratcheting mec work..new one avail at Mega Parts.

Yes there is a spring on the inside for the ratcheting lever....look at the kit from MEGAPARTS and its the smaller spring in the kit , very trickey to install .

FWIW, the release of the brake shoes are what will make the pedal come up. That spring inside the mechanism does very little - it is barely strong enough to retain the weigh of the pedal - never mind when it has the cable attached !!

............ahhhh no the spring IS NEEDED or the ratcheting mech to work and lock and it will not work without the small spring . It has nothing to do with with bringing the pedal up .
