5. Install a NEW parking brake lever output cable to tension equalizer retaining clip on tension equalizer. The cable retainer must be closed and
securely latched.
6. Adjust cable tension for the parking brake system using the following steps.
^
Position park brake lever so it is in the fully released position.
^
Tighten the adjusting nut on the parking brake lever output cable until 26 millimeters of thread is out past top edge of adjustment nut.
^
Actuate the parking brake lever to its fully applied position (15 clicks) 1 time and then reposition the lever to its fully released position.
NOTE: Actuating the parking brake lever to its fully applied position one time after tightening the adjustment nut will yield (stretch) the bent nail
portion of the tension equalizer approximately 1/4 inch. This process will correctly set the parking brake cable tension.
