Some 1988 and 1989 C, K trucks may experience a condition of slush build-up on the parking brake cable. The build-up is the result of the front tire
splashing unusual amounts of ice and slush onto the parking brake cable. If the build-up is severe enough, the added weight on the parking brake cable
can cause slight brake drag. To address this condition, a procedure has been developed that consists of an added cable support bracket under the vehicle
between the # 1 body mount and the cable connector or the # 2 body mount.
