Here's one thats been haunting me for a few months -
My parking brake doesn't seen to "lock" in the "on" position. I've bent the
flat bar with the hole in it so it grabs onto the parking brake shaft (the
1/2" rod that extends from the foot brake through the floorboards) some of
the time, but it wont hold all the time. For insurance I have to wedge a
piece of wood into the floorboard to hold the brake "on".
Should I grind the back of the flat bar so it has more of an "edge" to grab
onto, or is there some secret remedy???
Please help - I have bad dreams that my truck will roll away on its own and
end up in some cartoon...
All the best,
Tom

ps - the answer to this question would be a great fathers day gift!!!
