Default Parking brake cable for '83 UrQ

Hi! My name is Adam. I'm the guy who bought the 1983 UrQ off of nerdhotrod. My first UrQ, and it's an awesome car!

Just had a quick questioni about the parking brake cable. The car didn't come with one at all, so I'm not sure if it originally had the single or the double. I thought it was the single, but I'd just like to make sure before putting money down on anything. Thanks!

If the rear calipers are stock, it uses the one piece cable.

Default Doesn't someone have a writeup on converting to 84 4000 rear brakes?

I had Ken convert my street car using the 4000 E brake cable (double). Also needed the 4000 carriers and rear calipers.

Default First check to see if the parking brake mechanisms are frozen.

No point getting the right cables for an 83 if the parking brake items are frozen solid.

ARe you a CT fellow??
