ABSTRACT:
A parking brake attachment structure is provided secured to a separate portion of the vehicle frame disposed above the main frame section. The attachment structure includes a bracket secured above the vehicle to the auxiliary frame. A stay is mounted so as to protrude rightwardly from the bracket. A lever support bracket is mounted to the stay, inclined at an angle from the vertical. A parking brake lever mechanism including a lever pin, a parking brake lever, and a spring, is provided in the lever support bracket such that the parking brake lever is inclined at angle from the vertical. The parking brake lever is offset from a vehicle centerline. This mounting configuration requires only a small space around a parking brake lever, and enhances operability and the operating feel of the parking brake.
