Default Repairing parking brake

I'm in the process of repairing the parking brake on my 99 Dakota. It appears that the part that connects the DS and PS cables to the main cable going to the front has disinigrated into a unidentifiable mass of rust!
What does it look like and where can I get one? I checked the normal sources (NAPA, Auto zone etc) and find nothing.
Thanks in advance,
Bob

Hi Roadster,

I can't open your picture.

This link will take you to a page with the parts. Maybe it will help. I'm not endorsing the site, I've never used them.

It looks like it would be item 6 on the parts drawing, but it doesn't appear on the corrosponding parts list? Goes from item 5 to items 7?
I would think that would also be a good spot for the adjuster.

Try this attachment, it's from the 2000 factory parts catalog. Should be similar.

That may very well be it. It looks right.
Thanks
