    THANKYOU!!!!
    After finally working out how to re-tension the spring, I found myself in the same position as you - the handle worked but the cable didn't move. Your trick fixed it!

    to get to the tensioner, did you have to remove seats,carpet etc. Is the a simple on the 2004 jeep to get to this?

      Hi there. The front cable is self-tensioning, you don't have to remove the center console. The equalizer is below the backseat, you can just flip up the seat and you're there. If you want to change the front cable to the lever, you have to take out the carpet and the center console. I did just cut the carpet, since taking it out was way too much effort. If you don't change anything you just have to adjust the pre-tension in the brake drums.

    Did you reset the adjusters on the rear axle?

    Hey Martin thanks for the upload,
    I am trying this with my WJ, but as soon as I try to put the front cable back into the equilizer, the lever resets back to where it doesn't tighten (like yours in the beginning of the video). I also do not have the rotors on right now, and the adjusting star is all the way tightened.
    Let me know if you have any ideas what I am doing wrong (i replaced all three cables, as well as the shoes and hardware).
    Danke Schön

      Hi. I guess that's when the pretension isn't enough. I remember that I had this, too. But this was long ago and I sold the Jeep in 2017 :)

      @@grh_angelone Thanks for the fast response. I had to re-wind that clockspring so it should have more than enough tension on it. I am wondering if the cables are new and haven't 'stretched' enough yet. I will continue fiddling with it and post my results for others. Thanks

    Danke! I thought that equalizer access would require removing the seats and all of the carpeting. Nien! only the console which was long overdue for a power wash. Then only release the rear pins, far easier than removing the tires and all the carpet. Thank you
