HELP: parking brake cable tensioner broke

the adjustable cable tensioner broke and NO ONE, not even local Dodge dealers can get one.
Any one know a part number or where to get one? May just have to go to local Pull-a-part.
Thanks

I don't know exactly how or where yours broke but I had that happen years ago on a '73 W200 that was only a couple years old. I brazed it back together and it lasted until way past when I got rid of it about '95 or '96.

found one on flea-bay. although some one had taken it apart to get it off a truck then put it back together wrong. I was able to fix it though.
Going to get the old one welded back together and I will have a spare or sell it.
Thanks
