no pun intended
So today at work, parked and went to out my emergency brake on, *BAM* foot went to floor. Tryed to release it, didnt come back up. Thought it slipped off the ractcet which is usually the case, not this time. Went inside, figred id look later. Lookin at my truck inside and i see something hanging from the bottom of the truck, went out to lok at it and sure enough its he emergency brake cable..
jee, one thing after another.. guess its not totally unexpected with 183k and 13(almost 14) years on it.. it was the original cable which got ALOT of use, me, my father and grandfather all used the e-brake everytime we parked.
Good habbit to get into, then you know your e-brake works and the cable doesnt freeze up.
