C15 4x2 emergency brake cables
I'm looking for a set of two e-brake / handbrake cables for my Chevrolet C15 4x2 15-cwt truck.
Part no. is *1799285 The cables are approximately 92.5 cm (36.4") in length. Can anyone help?

Cables
Those cables look very similar to the C8 hand brake cables. I found two NOS cables for a late nineteen thirties (spell checker) light commercial Chevy that fitted the C8 perfectly.
Maybe you could have a look on the Chevy parts web sites - Jim Carter and the others - Chevs of the 40s

This is similar , might be possible to shorten it to suit the C15

If the cable above is otherwise (except for length) suitable, look for a company that manufactures control cables. When I wanted to shorten cables for the 15 cwt CMP trailer I used Aircraft Spruce https://www.aircraftspruce.com/categ.../controls.html and they were able to cut the existing cable assembly to the length I specified and swage a new ball onto the end. Naturally, if you can find a closer supplier the shipping won't hurt as much. Nothing done to aviation standards is cheap but....

Hanno,
Have you checked this thread? http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/sh...ad.php?t=29209 I can bring the ones I bought on Ebay and compare it with your originals so see if they would be the proper length for your C15.....than at least you know what to look out for. Alex
