URGENT! how do you adjust handbrake to suit IFS rears
How have people adjusted the handbrake so it works well with IFS rears in, I can't work out how to do it... It's getting caught on the fuel tank and if I tighten it, it goes loose on the right and tight on the left... what tha!
Yer it will need a little loosening as the rear diff moves back about an inch with IFS rears in.
Just undo the two nuts either side of the lever to loosen it off a little and then retighten nuts. if its still too tight loosen nuts a little further off until it feels right.
Ive included a pic from my gregorys manual to help you

it's alright I sorted it myself, I spaced the handbrake cable mounts to the chassis with washers to bring it about 10mm away from the chassis, then cut a groove in the fuel tank protector, ao all the cable can move to the left more so the handbrake mechanism pulled evenly on both levers and not just the left wheel. Thanks for the pic diesel028 but I've got a gregory's manual (be STOOPID not to have one). but yeh the problem was you can't adjust it properly because the diff is pulled back an inch and everything goes outta wack, had to allow the cable to move freely without getting caught on things (fuel tank)
