I got 63 inch chevies on my rig and my e-brake cable hits on the spring.  I thought about putting a longer bolt in the mounting bracket on the axle to get a little more clearance.  Does anyone know any cheap quick fix for this problem.  I got a trail ride next weekend and I have to have a functioning e-brake.

where is it hitting on the spring?
72 FJ40. 350 Multiport EFI, turbo 400, ORION T-case, 35 Procomp's  disk brakes front & rear, ARB's F&R and an onboard shower for the ladies!
86 sr-5 4runner SAS conversion. E-lockers F&R, 5.29's 4.7 Marlin case.

i made littel metal tabs that raised the lever above the spring.
seems to work pretty good.
