    another question bout this 1960 cj5 I’m looking at, where is the parking brake is it supposed to be a lever in the dash like a 3a or a pedal?

    Where would I find parts for it if possible?
    PO took it off the t case.

    There was a pull handle to the left of the driver under the dash. Debellas Jeep has some available.

    They might, but it consists of quite a few pieces that would really add up new. You may be better off posting a WTB in the classified section here.

    Be aware that the tcase mounted e-brake can be troublesome, that's probable why yours was removed.
    They work fine as long as they're clean & dry but the D18 is a notorious leaker and if those brake shoes get soaked in 90wy gear oil they lose their effectiveness.

    That’s good to learn maybe I’ll get one of those line lock types that you just hold the break pedal and flip the lever to hold the pressure.
