  Q: How to replace the left rear parking brake cable (without RPO NYS) on Chevrolet Avalanche 2500?

  A: The procedure to replace a Left Rear Park Brake Cable (without RPO NYS) starts by releasing the park brake followed by raising and supporting the vehicle. You should first loosen the equalizer nut which reduces tension on the cables before disconnecting the cable from the equalizer. The mounting bracket locking tabs must be depressed to extract the cable before removing the bolt at the shock absorber bracket. Users should detach cables from both the lever and the backing plate through the locking tabs for cables of all types except 15 series utilities. To detach the cable from the lever and backing plate of 15 series utilities follow the same procedure. You should first validate the new cable placement through guides and body mounts before it enters the backing plate locking tabs for 15 series utilities and finally connecting it to the lever. Follow the previous procedure twice for all except 15 series utilities before linking the cable to its lever. Place the cable at the shock absorber bracket and fasten it through a 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.) tight bolt installation. The mounting bracket allows cable attachment when locking tabs snap into position before the cable end reaches the equalizer where it requires tightening to 3.5 Nm (31 inch lbs.). Take away safety stands afterward lowering the vehicle and adjust the park brake cable.
