ABSTRACT:
A vehicle brake cable equalizer is provided for connecting a main actuator cable extending from the forward section of a vehicle to a pair of brake actuator cables extending from the rear wheel brakes of the vehicle. The vehicle brake cable equalizer includes a base having a forward end portion and a rearward end portion. A ramp is provided having at least a portion extending at an angle upwardly and forwardly from the rearward end portion of the base. Slots are provided in the base for attachment of the main actuator cable and are provided in the ramp for attaching a pair of brake actuator cables. Fasteners are provided on the ramp for temporarily securing the vehicle brake cable equalizer structure to vehicle structure while the brake actuating cables are connected thereto from a position on the underside of the vehicle floor. The structure permits an assembler to connect the brake actuator cables in a position beneath the vehicle floor without having visual contact with the brake cable equalizer which is located on the upper side of the vehicle floor.
