Hello, I have looked all over google and my local parts store. Does anyone have a means to acquire new parking brake hardware? Even good condition used would be fine.
I need the hook arm and the spreader.

That's understandable, 1998-2002 Camaros and Firebirds- that's 10 models to sell to. The small GM truck based line S10 Blazer Jimmy Sonoma Bravada 2001-2005 - that's 18 models to sell to and they made/sold a hell of a lot more off those vehicles than the f-bods. Make the parts that sell the most.

Used parts for this mechanism should be servicable also and I think we've pointed that out in other threads. The parking brake isn't a wear item. As long as the mechanism is lubricated/maintained and one doesn't drive off with the parking brake engaged, the mechanism should stay in good condition.

Pic is of torn apart, degreased, acid cleaned, but before POR15 painting.

Whenever I acquire a used/salvage 98-02 rear end ( even from a V6) for my own use, it has to have the backing plates complete. For me salvageable parts are the backing plates, axles, and carriers. 98 Auburn carriers are saved, 99-02 Torsen carriers are passed onto someone in need.

I agree, however I haven’t had the stock parts in years. I’m just now putting the car back to a street configuration and need the parking brake equipment.

If you want used, try Hawk's third gen or Brock's Camaro and Firebird parts.
