Your video came in handy. I had a frozen e brake lever in the drum. I pulled it, put a torch on it, penetrant, grease, more heat and finally some graphite powder and it's nice and loose. Used a slide hammer to pull the drum, crazy tight.
I cant remember exactly where i got it, most likely from roadlessgear.com. i get most of my stuff there for the Zuk! Thanks for watching Zuki Evolution!
So my ebrake won’t release. It’s as if it has seized up, where would be best place to start looking for problem. Seized up cable or small arms on back of drum?
Could be both, my arms were siezed up, i sprayed a bunch of penetrant on them and worked it loose. Unhook your cable from the arms and see if you can pull the lever. That'll tell ya if the cable is siezed or not.
Yup, he usually doesnt spend much time it the shop with me, too loud i guess most of the time, and we have to put him in the house when im welding because he likes to watch that too. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thanks! Im always trying to improve my videos, check out some of my new stuff, like the 1.6 16v swap or my airbox video! Thanks for watching Fabbin Adventures, subscribe and click the bell if you havent already!
Only take one side apart at a time, so you can look at the other side and see where the springs and stuff are supposed to go. The actual rear brake tools help alot, even a cheap set....have fun, and try and keep the skin on your knuckles..lol
@@FabbinAdventures yea I bought a cheap set from harbor freight. 20 bucks for a 7 piece set. I'm watching the video you made now about the speedometer cable. Lol
Yes, i had trouble with the audio back then for some reason, sorry about that, my latest videos are good, check them out. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Been so long since I had mine apart I had to watch this to see how the adjuster worked. Think mine isn't, pumping the brakes just pops the pistons out of the wheel cylinders.
That's from an SJ410. That may even be what your truck is. They look the same but there will be a lot of differences. drum brake of the tcase is somewhat common for larger trucks. I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.

Can a guy buy new e brake cables, mine seems to be stretched out and cant be adjusted. And where can i buy one? Thanks.
I think so, check with Roadless gear.com
My 87 samurai emergency brake is stuck on. The handle moves freely but ineffectively. What to do?
Probably siezed arm back by the drums, check that and free it up and reset your e-brake
Hi, should I release the handbrake cable before adjusting the shoes?
Yep
Can you please tell me where you got your oval reverse lights? Thanks Dave...
I got them ordered in at a auto part store. They are a Grote brand light.

Did you ever get the correct parking brake lever return spring?
Nope i never did, just some springs from the local hardware store that seem to work.
Thanks for watching!

my own came with a brake drum on the driveshaft for an e brake, never inspired me with confidence
