    How do I remove the parking brake handle's leather boot? (FZJ80)

    How do I remove the parking brake handle's leather boot? I was guessing it was just held on by clips and I just pull on it really hard, but before I gorilla it, I wanted to be sure. Thanks guys!

    Parking brake

    I had my rear brakes done yesterday and smashed them to check the parking brake as it has never worked. They said the canter lever that basically pivots to tighten the pads when you pull the handle is froze up. I can't seem to find this part anyone able to help? Thanks again!
