The parking brake handle on my 71 was missing some parts and was not functioning. I have it just about done, but can't figure out how the pawl(?) (blue item in picture below) is supposed to maintain contact with the other toothed part. The pushbutton releases/pushes the top of the pawl disengaging it from the other part, but I do not see what is supposed to put tension on the pawl to reingage it with the other toothed part.
I assume there is a spring of some sort missing but I do not see where it would mount. the fixed handle on my 73 has a slightly different pushrod that engages the top of the pawl, and releases and engages both. Anybody have the answer to this one? I know you are out there! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Jim  |

Nice simple fix. thanks for the pics. Your solution is nice because you can make it work with just about any length spring.
