Handbrake assembly rebuild (in cab not brake itself)
Handbrake assembly rebuild (in cab not brake itself)
Hi All, I am replacing the handbrake cable and have had a problem with the handbrake not staying on, it has to be pulled hard, then twisted vertical where it will sit for a moment or two, then spring off. Does anyone have an exploded diagram of the locking mechanism of the handbrake itself? It all came apart quite quickly and I didn't see how stuff went together... Thanks

Maybe you can extrapolate something from this:

...also, just a thought. When my handbrake lever (in cab) would not hold, I ordered the disks for the rear brake assembly as I had had it apart once and thought perhaps my rehabilitation of the parts was not successful.
Turns out that a few drops of oil on the shaft was all it needed. Not logical but it works now.

The same thing worked for me also when the lever wouldn't stay locked.
