Dana 60 parking brake cable routing

[hunt2elk]

8 3/4 rear ends have this welded clamp on the right side of the axle to secure the e- brake cable. Was under my Bee that has a Strange 60 and noticed that that clamp is missing and the cable has wore some paint off the frame from not being secured in this area. Did original Dana's have this clamp as well?

1967 factory Dana has a welded bracket that a bolt threads into, right where the tailpipe can rub it.

Thanks, I'll check tomorrow to see if there is a hole in that area on mine. Seems odd Strange wouldn't make some provision for securing the cable.

Same bracket on the 69 as the 67.... Staying warm on the West side?

I need to make one of these brackets that the cable clamp bolts onto for my S60 in my '69 Charger. Can anyone get me some close up pictures with dimensions?

I know this is an old thread, when ordering your S60 from Strange you have to ask for the clips. A little Strange if you ask me, pun intended.

Hydraulic brake line clips came welded to the housing. What I need is dimensions/ pictures of the bracket that the parking brake cable clamp gets bolted to.

Anyone help you out yet? I can wrestle out a 68 Dana 60 housing I have and provide pics/ measurements

No help yet.

I need to fabricate this bracket -preferably today- but I'm kind of flying blind here.

I definitely would appreciate your help.

Awesome ! Diameter and location of hole? Is that a nut welded to the underside of the hole? Thanks...
