Handbrake cable change
« on: February 22, 2007, 16:42:53 »
Was under there the other night contemplating changing it coz its snapped at the handbrake lever and was shocked to say the least about its routing and its in-excessability,
Anyone got any tips/short cuts to make what looks like a right sod of a job go a little easier  :cry:  :cry:

I tried several routes for mine whilst the gearbox was out and came to the conclusion that if I didn't want it ripped off on a rock then it had to go the same way.

Finally had a go at getting it of on saturday,what an absolute nightmare,had to take off the rear prop and the whole brake assembly just to get at a stupid little clip that held the cable into its bracket on the gearbox, :cry:  :cry: ,going to have a go at putting the new one back on on Thursday night,

wish me luck  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:
