stupid question time handbrake cable
Re: stupid question time handbrake cable
Have you brought a muddyzook kit to fit your calipers ? As the kit also comes with bits to make the twin sj Handbrake cable fit to the rover calipers. They are specially made parts and would be difficult to make unless you have access to a good milling machine.

Re: stupid question time handbrake cable
icomplelty over looked your comment highlander, sorry. but yeah.. thats an idea... i hAVE ANother singele hanbrake lever.Highlander wrote:Again, probably not much help to you BUT....worth thinking about before you do yours.
I'm about to do the same with Ford Scorpio Calipers, I'm going to use the Scorpio handbrake cable (which is a one piece job) so that the ends will fit on the calipers.
My plan is to cut the cable in two, fit another handbrake so there are two, side by side and have fiddle brakes, one handbrake for each side, very handy if you have one rear wheel spinning, you can just lock it and transfer the power to the other wheel.
Poor mans LSD
Re: your question, I wouldn't imagine it would be too difficult to make anything fit really but I don't know
worth sizing up.
will make them fit!
sorry for bad english.. i work nights. so i is tired.
Re: stupid question time handbrake cable
is there only one version of the twin cable type handbrake, and where do i get a pair of cables from at a reasonable price, i'm having trouble finding them, either locally or online.

Re: stupid question time handbrake cable
I've got the two cable hand brake but I'm fitting a transfer brake drum so I guess I'd need the hand brake lever in Darrell's pic 3 (posted sep 21)?
If this is the case I'd be willing to swop?
Edit... I took the hand brake assembly off yesterday and the long threaded adjuster has a bend in it so I'm going to adapt it to fit the single brake cable as that threaded piece is not needed for the single cable.
