I think I've come up with a totaly new way to hook up 911 parking brakes. It involves making up longer hybrid cables.
It's not complex, doesn't cost tons, and is about as straight forward as possible. It functions exactly as intended in the 911. Here is a teaser photo; (IMG:http://www.performanceforum.com/wesvann/914a/my-rear-brake/b-mrb1.jpg) Here is a link to my write-up on how I did it (it's a preliminary write-up). hybrid cables Wes (can somebody please find me the photo that I've seen on this site where somebody used a cable end block at the parking brake lever that had set screws) |

Just about every porsche other than the 911/912 & 914 uses the same newer lever design and same brake shoes 930/964/993/996/986/997/924/944/928.
Hmmm, I have some E30 parts laying around somewhere taken off the racecars. I should compare. FWIW, the E30 has a bolt on support (part #3). If its the same width as the stop plate you have to weld on anyway it could kill 2 birds w/ one stone. Craig downs is correct. The reason for the ears is to keep the pin from falling out when you pull on the cable. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts.do?mo...hg=34&fg=30 |
