Nevermind i got it to connect to the equalizer bar. I just had to pull the life out of it and it finally gave me the slack i needed. It works great now.

The adjustment is having the rear drums adjusted right . I disconnected my cables at the rear of the middle cable and cant get the rear two cables back on ... (about an inch short ) Now I'm going to take the brake shoes off to reconnect .

Well when my truck is cold the rear abs locks up way to easy but after about 5min of driving it stops doing that. The e brake i just installed was from ford so it fit perfect i just had to pull on that **** harder than i felt comfortable pulling on it but it did the trick and i was just barley able to slip the equalizer bar on all 3 cable ends and good to go now. My truck is a 5spd so the e brake is a must if you as me i hate just leaving it in gear with out the e brake.
