Step 4: Route the cable housings up to the cable adjuster
bracket. Be sure to keep the cable housings a safe
distance away from the exhaust and from any moving
parts. Cable housings that are damaged or melted will
not be covered under warranty.
Support the cable housings securely.
Step 5: It will be necessary to shorten the cable housings.
Make sure that the inner wires are removed from
the cable housings! Mark the cable housings where
they line up with the cable adjuster bracket.
If the cable housings are braided stainless steel, slide
the ferrules back towards the rear end, away from the
ends that are being cut. Fig. 6 DO NOT remove the
ferrules from the braided stainless steel housings!
Wrap tape around the area to be cut and use a
cutoff wheel or fine-toothed hacksaw to cut the cable
housings at your mark.
Step 5: (continued) If the cable housings are black universal,
remove the ferrules. Cut the cable housings at your mark
using heavy duty 8” diagonal cutting pliers or a hacksaw.
Lokar recommends Klein brand Diagonal Cutting Pliers
# D2000-28, available at The Home Depot or through
Grainger Industrial Supply, part # 4A838.
After cutting the cable housings, put the ferrules back in
place at the end of the cable housings. The ferrules do
not need to be crimped or otherwise attached in place.
Step 6: Insert the cable housings and ferrules into the cable
adjusters on the cable adjuster bracket.
Step 7: Install the Ford Explorer clevises onto the inner wires by
sliding the end of the inner wire without the ball end on
it through the 1/8" hole from inside the U-shaped part of
the clevis. Pull the inner wire through the clevis until the
brake cable ball on the end of the inner wire stops inside
the clevis. Fig. 7
Install the inner wires into the cable housings starting
from the backing plate fittings.
