Newbie needs help

I can't seem to get the e-brake cable to come off of the rear brake assembly is there a trick to this?

from the backing plate you mean?

Use a deep 12pt socket with a tight fit over the end of it, and it will squeeze the fingers so you can remove the cable.

Thanks I'll give it a try!

If you don't have the right socket a hose clamp will work also. Just clamp about 1/8" from the end of the fingers. Get the fingers started through the hole and remove the clamp.
