For the life of me I have not figured out a way to get the e-brake cable hooked back up to the e-brake arm on the rear brake shoe. The spring is very tight and I have not found a tool that lets me slide the spring back long enough to get the nib through the slot. Anyone have a suggestion?
I had the same problem recently on the Ranchero. Tore a big hunk of skin of my thumb. Had to get my son out to help. I learned my lesson and did not take the other side off.

I use help when doing that part. I have a friend hold the very end with a large pair of pliers, then I place a pair of needle nose pliers in the last coil of the spring and pull it back, then inset the lever.
