Default Removing E Brake cable??????????????

Trying to remove E brake cable. I have the handle out and the rear shoes. I see in the service manual it goes to a equalizing bracket. Where is it located so I can remove it? Car is on trailer with no tires so I can't jack it very high. I can only lift it from the back and the splitter limits that lift height. I can follow the cables as long as my arm goes from the rear but can't see above the diff and tranny. Can I get it with out major component removal or is it up in the tunnel above the exhaust?Thanks!

Parking brake cable equalizer is above transmission, You will have to jack car up high to gain access , sorry. (unless you like cutting big holes in the floor). If your exhaust is in place you will have to reach around the tranny.
