Description:
Bob Drake's emergency hand-brake cables are in a class by themselves. They've taken all of Ford's original specifications and improved upon them for superior performance and durability. Correct fine-threaded ends are attached to a 1 x 37 steel plow wire strand core to hold your Ford on even the steepest hills. The flat-wrapped steel casing is wire-wound for extra protection from rocks and road debris. A modern internal polymer sleeve, unavailable to Ford in the 1930s and '40s, encases the cable for smoother, quieter operation and longer cable-life. The cable-conduit ends are securely fastened to sustain a 3,000 lb. load without slippage. Some cables even have an extra steel conduit-sleeve where extreme wear situations exist. These heavy-duty cables fit from the brake handle to the junction under the car, where they're joined by the cable that goes to the rear brake-drums.
