Re: Front parking brake cable

Welcome to TGO.

Any wrecking yards in your area that might have the year / model of your car?
If not, visit Hawks Thirdgen parts on this site. Another on-line vendor is http://www.tacreationsusa.com. Also, watch the classifieds section on this site. Folks are always parting cars, or post an add in the parts wanted section.

Good luck

Hey Wade thanks for the response. Junkyards I checked didn't have any appearently that setup was only on 90-91 years. I have dug deep online and found 1.

Re: Front parking brake cable

Here's the part numbers I have for the front cable:

GM 12506875
Wagner BC129968
Dorman C129968
Bendix C1784

This part broke on my car as well but the part doesn't exist. I called the dealer, auto-parts stores, and even Dorman themselves. The cable has been discontinued and is not available anywhere.



1991 Pontiac Firebird
Stock TBI 5.0L V8 (305ci)
Borg Warner T-5 Manual Transmission

Reviving this thread... After many years of waiting and searching, I found the part on E-bay. Someone selling old warehouse stock.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/183836414919

Looks like I might have bought the only one listed, but the seller might have more sitting around.

Enjoy!
