Default E-brake cable bracket

Hi,

I'm trying to install the rear parking cable on a Z06 knuckle setup but it looks like I got the wrong cable / bracket combination. Basically the cable fitting cannot pass through the bracket hole....

I would need probably a different bracket.

Any help ?

I may not be understanding your problem, but the fitting will only pass partway through the hole. The hole acts as a "stop" for the cable, and when hooked up there will be tension on the spring. I don't know if the Z06 is different than a base, but the construction appears the same. Make sure you verify the part number to be sure.

And while I'm sure you've thought of this, make sure the parking brake is not engaged, or you will find hooking up the cable exceedingly difficult.
