I'm almost finished with my D44 swap, just need to finish the brakes and put the wheels back on. I can't seem to get the e-brake cables connected. The length seems fine. I know that I need to compress the spring around the cable so I can hook the 'barrel' to the parking brake lever on the trailing shoe, but I can't for the life of me get that spring to compress. Can I un-hook the parking brake cables from the junction under the transmission tunnel and slide them towards the rear to take some tension off the spring and make it easier to compress, or is there some reason that that wouldn't work?
