There's a clip on the side of the bell housing and a clamp on the passenger side of the crossmember.

Larry,
When the Ebrake is adjusted correctly, how much pull would you see on the cane style handle?  I pull mine about 2 inches and the brake is locked up is that not enough?  Maybe the question is how much play should be in the cable?

I would say that so long as the e-brake is not dragging when the handle is all the way in, you are good to go.
