Thank you for all of your suggestions,  sounds like PB is better than the WD 40 
that I have been using.

This started with the intent of a front and rear brake job and I was not able 
to break the rear axle nut so I decided to replace fronts and adjust the rear.  
I have the parts for the rear and figured I'd work on that after the trip to MP 
resort.  Then after a test drive and good break function I parked it in the 
garage and a the passenger side e brake cable snapped when I engaged it.

Sounds like I need an axle whacker or wamer.  Where can I get one?

I have been told that I should not drive the bus in this condition b/c the 
remaining cable can wrap inside of the drum, so making it to a shop or T@P like 
this doesn't sound likely (but I'll get there).

I'll recruit some help/strength and a whacker.

Thanks again.
