Hydrolic handbrake for hilux?

Post by professor »

Does anyone know where i can purchase a hydrolic handbrake kit to replace the original HB .
Much easyer to have just the one line headin out back
Im having trouble mounting the original HB over my new crossmembers
and in near future i want to run patrol diffs.
Im thinking these units are used in rally cars.

I set twin disc calipers on my rear end one set does normal stopping and the other does the hand brake function. i adapted a clutch master cylinder to my hand brake lever and presto a hand brake that always works. keep in mind that this is not road legal as your park brake must should be mechanical mechanism.
