The '62 alum. case TF had the trams output ebrake for one last year only in '62. Everything prior was on the trans output at least back into the 1930s as I recall my '38 Dodge in high school was my first experience with one. 57chizler Posted 2015-06-02 6:19 PM (#480225 - in reply to #479964) Subject: Re: BRAKE QUESTION MOPAR EMERGENCY BRAKE Expert Posts: 3780 Location: NorCal Only the full-sized cars (Chrysler/Dodge880) retained the trans-mounted parking brake in '62, all others had it in the rear. The '60 A-body (Valiant/Lancer) was the first year it moved to the rear.
