The insanity that calls itself the emergency brake!
Parts 19 & 20 were gone, parts 6 & 7 were gone,
and part 8 was put in through the upper holes facing down (which is why
it was still there). Springs 15 are very different lengths (damaged)
there was an additional spacer between part 9 and the metal ear it goes
up against and NOTHING was adjusted properly. I had to create parts
for this. The second picture is identical to what the truck has,
the first was only reference for parts 18-20 since they weren't shown clearly
in the other picture. Reminds me, I still have to file a groove in
the head of the bolt (part 19) for a new lock wire (part 20).
Well, I cut a groove in the head of the bolt, and thus finished the emergency brake setup for now. Later I will have to get the brake band replaced, but that was not in the budget at this time ($60-80)
I printed out the pictures and instructions from the
manuals for reference while I was working on the brake setup. Keeps
the manual cleaner.
