Default Just funning with you

C15 I assume attached is picture of spring as used on my Chevys easy to slip in just remove the handle pin bolt and insert the spring in the hole and up the handle. That’s the good news the bad news is that the major reason for the parking paw not working as it should is not the spring but is slop in all the connections so that the paw doesn’t engage correctly.

I’ve been having problems with the parking brake on my C60S had the entire lever assembly and ratchet out twice now even compared the angle of the teeth with a known good unit. The only thing that could find different in the two units is the slop at all the pins coming down from the release handle guess only thing I can do is try replacing all the pins (bolts and rivets) with snug fitting pins.

From the dirty finger nails you can tell I just came in from the shop.
