Replacement Parking Brake Cable (rear)
Posted: Tue May 25, 2021 3:58 pm
I need a replacement parking brake cable that goes from the hydraulic/spring actuator to the lever that applies the drum parking brake on my 98 Safari Sahara coach. The original is broken so I currently have no parking brake!
I spent several hours this afternoon searching both this forum, the Safari Facebook group, and the internet but have found nothing for a source or part number for this cable.
I have located a company out in Ohio called Bunker Hill Cables that fabricates custom cables. I talked with "the cable guy" there and he thinks than can help me out. didn't find him until almost closing time in Ohio (I'm in California) so I sent him photos and some information from their website containing specs on my current cables. I am fearful to find out the price of a "custom made cable!" Since it was so late out there, I will have to wait for tomorrow for additional follow-up.
Has anyone ever heard of this company, or used them?
I would appreciate any suggestions readers of the forum may have as I continue this saga! Will update the forum as I continue. .
