J 37043 Parking Brake Cable Release Tool
Notice: Handling the parking brake cables during service requires extra care. Damage to the nylon coating reduces the corrosion protection. If the
damage area passes through the nylon coating, increased parking brake effort could result. Avoid contacting the protective coating with sharp-edge
tools or the sharp surfaces of the vehicle underbody.
1. Disable the park brake automatic adjuster.
2. Raise and suitably support the vehicle.
3. Remove the rear propeller shaft.
4. Remove the park brake cables from the parking brake equalizer.
5. Using the J 37043 (1), remove the park brake cable.
6. Install a pole jack with a block of wood under the fuel tank.
Important: When serving the left park brake cable, the fuel tank DOES NOT have to be removed.
