I need to take the e brake handle completely off but the cable assembly doesn't fit through the tunnel and the lever side pin seems frozen on. The picture is of me using PB Blaster and a grip to apply pressure to the pin but it's not budging.
Any ideas? Attached thumbnail(s) |

On mine, the pin rusted solid to the lever. I used a dremel with a grinding wheel to flatten the head, put a punch in the center and drilled it out. Worked perfect and was able to save all the original parts. Make sure you buy the correct length pin when it's time to reassemble. I got some from AA that were too short. But that's what I get for ordering from AA. I'm smarter now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
