Removing Emergency Brake Cable - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

ok, I need to change out my rear brake pads on my 98 240sx, and on my 94 Infiniti G20. But for both of them, it is neccessary to disconnect the emergency brake cable from the rear caliper in order to swivel the caliper up to access the pads.

I'm doing them on the G20 first, since its the beater.
I've found a nut that loosens the tension on teh cable, but not enough to actually get the cable off the "hook" (for lack of a better word). There's got to be another way to loosen the cable, or something that I'm missing.

Can anyone help??
