- Installed the Wilwood Universal Parking Brake kit on my 1971 Chevelle SS. This is to go with my Wilwood rear disc brakes with internal drum parking brakes.

Many thanks! That was a very clean install. Thank you for the pro tip with the junction block!!
Nice video! That junction block idea is why I came here! (1979 Trans Am OEM metric 4 wheel discs to Wilwood.) The instruction appear to be for a console mounted hand brake, but zero info for a floor mounted parking brake pedal as I have. Thanks!
Great video of the Wilwood e brake install
Thanks killer! Helpful.. ‘71 Nova
cool video. i'll be doing this soon on my 68 stang. thanks for sharing.
Thank you. Doing 70 Monte and this cleared up some questions. Good job.
Nice neat job. and good clear video
Are there any kits out there that can be added to disc brake kits without the internal drum brake?
This one
Thank You for this video,I just subbed because you seem to know what your doing.I have an 80 z28 and a flowmaster exhaust and the parking brake cable is wrapped around the exhaust .If I have the cable between the floor and exhaust it drags along the top of exhaust IF I have it below the exhaust it will burn and I also don't like anything hanging lower that the exhaust because it could grab shit while driving and and up bringing home all kinds of crap. L o L...I just needed an idea from someone else that does the same quality work I do.You know ,no matter how much you know or the amount of experience you have their is always some little POS that just rubs you the wrong way.I think I will try the kit you used.Maybe I can fix it better then what's their and finish the rest of my ride.ThanX again for your vid....
Thanks for the kind words. Having a brake cable below the exhaust is definitely not something I'd want to leave be.
Very good video. I am A blind person and an enthusiastic mechanic. I could not see details that I would love to have an explanation for, verbally. My question is, is this a mechanical parking brake installation over an electronic one? This is what I am interested in. Please, reply to my question as soon as possible. I highly appreciate your video.. God bless you.
This kit is for mechanical parking brake. I would assume for an electric parking brake you just need an electrical wire.
great video, is your car sitting on jenga blocks? lol
Haha Thanks. The blocks are a great way to get the car high off the ground while maintaining ride height and full weight on the suspension.
Why do you say drum brakes it looks like you got disc brakes
It has an internal drum parking brake.
How do you get that clip over your emergency bracket for drum breaks mine looks like you just put the cable on it but kit didn't come with any springs for it
Let me save you 5 minutes. This is horribly incomplete as an install video. You devoted way too much time to chatting about the barrel nut.
You left out the most important parts of the overall install, such as ensuring the parking brake isnt engaged during assembly, setting/tightening the adjustable block on that threaded screw, etc. I'm also not clear what you referring to when you said you needed to "adjust to your drum brake" that you mentioned at the end of the video.
I am not a mechanic,,, but I think he means the horizontal screw with notches on, which you, with a flat screwdriver can adjust by turning either way to loosen or tightening the shoes .
The drum brakes are for the parking brake, you have to adjust the drum
brake shoes out so the parking brake will hold the car securely. They are
only for the parking brake. The disc brakes are on the caliper and they
are for stopping the car. Mike
