Re: NG TA handbrake cable/linkage

I have just been looking in my Ital Haynes manual. I think the handbrake cabke from the Marina/Ital might be worth a try. There is a single cable running to the handbrake lever and a cross wire wirh forks on each end running across the back of the rear axle. It just depends how much shorter the NG is to the Marina.

The handbrake lever in my car is from an MGB. Its a nice chrome lever but the bit that fits through the floir is a bit weak in my view.


Cheers

Re: NG TA handbrake cable/linkage

Hi Jeremy. Maybe I did use the original cable, I just cannot figure out why I did not use the original swivel joints etc, on the axle.
Thankfully it is working at the moment, so I have time to try another way, maybe with cables rather than rods.

Hi Ron

If you need new cables made to your design try Speedgraph Richfield I had some made for a couple of vintage MG's and found them very good.

Thanks for that Jeremy, I will have a look at them.
