Default 1st gen Dodge Dakota Parking Brake Cable Coupler

At the rear drums the intermediate brake cable and drum parking brake mechanism are coupled together with some sort of hollowed out metal where the brake cable ends slide in. However it's rotten and my rear brake cable is seized. I can't remove the cable without destroying the coupler.

I believe the part number is 03766234. However I am unable to find one anywhere. I am not sure if this is it, I don't think so....

I suspect your best bet is going to be the used market. Check out Car-Part.com, find a nice rust-free one from a southern state.

PartsVoice.COM turns up a hit for the Mopar number; hit there, search for it (manufacturer Chrysler) and contact the dealer.

That Dorman may work; it may be worth a try to see if it does.
