C3 E-brake cable

[Bob I.]

I have a problem with the cable rubbing the tires [ 245/60R15 ] the loop in the cable [ between the the t-arm and frame mount ] Leans toward the tires any ideas on correcting this problem without changing the the tire size.

I have used that very tire size on my 1969 for years with no problem such as you described. However, the cables do come pretty close to the tires---about 1". The only thing that I can figure in your case is that the rear cable sheath (the part between the frame bracket and the T-Arm bracket) is a little bit too long.
