Handbrake cable brackets

As mentioned in an earlier post, it was quite a puzzle where and how to make the handbrake cable brackets. The problems were interference with the panhard rod and getting the correct pulling angle.

I ended up with a non symetrical solution. Right hand side: length of bracket approximately 11 cm (rear from axle). The end is twisted a few degrees to get the correct pulling angle. (Tack welded).












The left hand side is approximately 6 cm rear from the axle. Also this side is twisted. Both brackets have been made from angle iron 30x30x3mm.
