>Hi all,

>Still lurking out here in digest land.  I have a friend  who has a 1950
3100 that he has replaced the rear with a 1959 1/2 ton rear.  He is now
scratching his head as to what parking brake cables to use.  I havent seen
the setup, but apparantly they use different cables and hook to the action
arm different than the AD trucks.  His question is can he use '59 cables
with his current original parking brake parts?  Also, does anyone have any
exploded view drawings of how this would go together?  He has brake parts
from both rearends kinda mixed up I think...
