My parking brake cable on the passenger side (going into the drum brake) is too short and is rubbing the shock (cable runs in front of shock) and making weird noises over speed bumps and other drop-ins and driveways.

Is there an extension available?

or does anyone know a quick fix? (not sure if running cable behind shock will fix problem or cause more)

4" lift BTW

I will post pic soon

Thanks in advance for any input

Yo,

I looked thru about six 4 inch 92 to 96 Bronco suspension lift articles and none mentioned the cable. What is the manufacturer of your lift?

I went through this Super lift 4 inch lift for your 95, but no mention of the cable, just longer brake hoses, etc,

Dorman has some stock 95 Bronco cables at http://www.dormanproducts.com/p-14444-c94490.aspx?year=1995&make=Ford&model=Bronco&parttype=Cable%2520-%2520Parking%2520Brake&origin=YMM

Includes Cable Length: 92.28 In.,

Conduit Length: 79.17 In.

Can try adjusting your cable

In other years, some Bronco owners wrote that they moved the clip, part #12 in above link.

Yo,

I just looked the kit up..

No extended park brake cables cited.

http://www.procompusa.com/suspension-product-details.aspx?pt=3533&pl=1808&pqq=2281&pqa=13498

I could not open the installation instructions to see if there is any info on the cable.

This part fits your vehicle:

1995 FORD BRONCO

Lift Height: 4 Inch

K4054B

4 Inch Stage II Lift Kit with ES3000 Shocks

Front Lift: Bump Stop Extensions

Steering Correction: Pitman Arm

Radius Arms

Extended Length Brake Lines

Rear Lift: Add-A-Leafs

Shocks: Front/Rear ES3000 Shocks

Shock Boots Not Included

When passenger side wheel is off ground and parking brake is on, can the tire be rotated by hand?
