I thought I would look into my handbrake cable problem, (seems to be snapped) and discovered 4 things
1. the rear shocks have definately seen better days
2. there is more wrong with the handbrake than just the cable
3. the rear calipers (both sets) look knackered
4. the pads are more rust than pad


So does anyone know where I can get replacement calipers, disks and rear shocks? and how do I get them out, it looks rather tight.
I gather the backend is '76 Jag

I have used them twice, good service and great units. Its the old saying you get what you pay for, and in there case you are paying for units and good/high prices.

But what price safty!
