For 1990-2009 cars

### System Component Description

The park brake system consists of the following:

Park Brake Pedal Assembly: Receives and transfers park brake system apply input force from driver to park brake cable system.
Park Brake Release Handle Assembly: Releases applied park brake system when pulled.
Park Brake Cables: Transfers input force received from park brake pedal, through park brake cable equalizer, to park brake apply lever.
Park Brake Cable Equalizer: Evenly distributes input force to both the left and right park brake units. Threaded park brake cable equalizers are also used to remove slack in park brake cables.
Park Brake Apply Lever: Multiplies and transfers input force to park brake actuator/adjuster.

### System Operation

depressing the Park Brake Pedal creates INPUT FORCE. The INPUT FORCE is transferred and evenly distributed through the park park cables and the equalizer to the left and right rear park brake cables. The INPUT FORCE, is then transferred to the apply levers located in each of the rear brake drums. The levers then multiply the INPUT FORCE and transfer the force to the rear brake shoes. At that point, the brake shoes are forced to expand and make contact with the friction surface of the rear brake drums, preventing the rotation of the rear wheels. Use the park brake release handle to disengage the park brake.
