Hey all.

My parking brake will no longer stay set.  I don't see anything
obviously broken, and have tried lubing it with White Lithium to make
the little metal notch just wasn't sticking.  Even if I try to hold
that notch point in place against the teeth, it still doesn't keep
enough tension to keep the brake up.  Any ideas before I try to hunt
up a new assembly?

Thanks,
David.
