i need a custom handbrake maker to make a totally new handbrake for my wagon. i dont care if i need to leave it with someone while they work on it. i have been looking for ppl to do this for a while and no one wants to touch it. there has got to be someone out there that can help me. PLS.

does Datsport do something that will work on the wagon ?
whats the rear brake setup ?

sorry should've mentioned that is got a hilux diff in it. Nah they dont have nething to suit my setup, thanks anyway.

Andrew will have a chat with a mate of mine and see if he has any suggestions, he is into hotrods so may know someone as most of there stuff is custom made.

Cheers
Luke

I gather you are wanting a tunnel mounted handbrake
They are fairly easy to put in, the wrinkle in a sedan is making a pivot box and lever at the rear end.
In a wagon that may not be an issue.
If the Hilux diff. already has that part, then I reckon you're nearly there

I think you can use hydraulic if you use a seperate line, anybody know about this ?

I took in the std cable to a trailer place around archerfield with a rough measurement of the required cable length and these guys took off the required brackets and fittings and made a new (but shorter) one. I have a Mazda B1600 diff. Call Kev Rowley 3814 4674 as he knows exactly where in Brisbane the place is. As to the physical handbrake lever, my original one has been positioned rearward approx 3 inches from the std position.... Maybe you could graft a 120Y lever to your floor??

Sorry if i'm way off track, i'm not familiar as to what the inside of a 1600 looks like

Cheers
Steve
