Guest EDMONTON PATHFINDER Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Just wondering if any one has tried to relocate there emergency brake handle. Does anyone think there is a good spot to put it. The reason is that im looking for open space between the seats to build a center console with cup holders ect.

vengeful Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 You could do it like on the Hardbody pickups where its a pull doohickey in the dash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest EDMONTON PATHFINDER Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I was looking into that direction. How hard would it be to change over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vengeful Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 Probably not trivial...though I couldn't say for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jj big shoe Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Dunno how well it would go in an auto if that's what you have, but here's what I did. You do have to modify the e-brake and bend the trans shifter, after that its a piece 'o cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaritimeMan Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I will second the statement that the dashes are the same. If you look to the right of your steering colume just under your dash, you will see an upside down U hole that is nicely filled by a dash matching platic piece. That is where the pull handle would go on a H body. But alas, I do not know how the cable is routed either. Ask 88, he's been under enough of em.
