E Brake cable question

[moparfanUSA]

Well, I'm at the point where I am installing the E-Brake assembly and tried to put in the cable, but found out that I need the "pin" that holds the end of the cable to inside of the assembly
( I saw someone's picture of an assembly ( I did not take a picture of mine) and added the red arrow to show what I mean) only to find out I do not have it. Also when we push the pedal down it does engage the "ratchet" to lock the pedal. We first thought that there was an internal spring inside, but I am kind of thinking the spring on the handle was the spring that holds the teeth in place, am I correct? Does anyone know where to get the "pin"

I'm not sure where to get the "pin" & I'd have to take a look at mine to be sure, but you might be able to just make one.

The spring on the handle is what makes the e-brake "ratchet" & lock in place. Without the spring, you have to push the handle forward to get it to work.

Tried e-bay, with no luck so far. Tried a few different descriptions.

Must have been purchased, saw it yesterday. I looked and found a complete ebrake, salvage it?

Thanks Red, but was just looking for the pin only. My body guy machined one and made it work.
Thanks
