Finally bought two of the rubber bellows that fit onto the rear end of the parking brake cables, next to the calipers. The cables are in place but cannot figure out how on earth to get the bellows over the much larger end clasp - or even the smaller hole on the other end could ever get over the clasp (with the cables in place there isn’t much geometry to assist leverage).
Any tips or tricks to doing this? See pics.   |

Make sure to bookmark this thread. Just in case the wife opens the glove box. She may have some questions. It may be easier for her to understand no honey it's for the car.
Not like the sitcom Man seeking woman Season 2 Episode 3 Warning it a bit twisted |
