Re: Parking brake release cable

My mistake, it's been a while, try calling freightliner.
By the way, the only serious issues I had with that chassis had to do with the parking brake system. They originally specified too low a pressure rated hose to the hydraulic actuator, causing the system to lose all its fluid. Each time this happened I was stuck until I could replace the hose and fluid. I finally was told about the hose rating and corrected the problem. Then a few months later, I again had a complete loss of fluid. This time the cause was the factory had cross-threaded a fitting on the actuator. Fortunately this was in 1988, I was still under warranty, and they paid for a new actuator fitting and parking brake drum and shoes. After that, I had 20 years of no parking brake issues.
