It seems my E-brake cable might be a couple inches too long? I bought everything from ILT and they are asking for the length of the one I have installed. Since it's installed, it is real hard to get an accurate measurement. The cable I'm talking about is the front cable connected to the E-brake pedal that has the threaded adjustment. Would any of you guys know the correct length I am supposed to have? The car is a 1970 442 4spd.

 

Looks like you have the longer TH400 front cable. The front cable for TH400 is 49.5" vs 44.5" for all other transmissions.

 

Thanks Joe, thats good info. Where did you find those lengths?

 

They are listed in the parts book. P/N 401991

 

I had an identical problem with ILT 20 years ago. Initially, I told them what length I wanted.

They sent another length and then argued with me that I was wrong. I even offered to send them a copy of the factory documentation.

They eventually sent the correct length.

I'm surprised that they have not learned in the ensuing 20 years.
