i did this on a nova i had..... the cable runs in a track that goes over exhaust check that... you could have also either stretch the cable or nakard the tensioner... if the cable is well loose u may have broken the leaver!!!!

(if at the back both ends are connected to wheels still and u can lock em up still the its prob tensioner thing that sits on back axel!) :thumbs:
