handbrake cable replacement

[stesrg]

Ok cant find this one and never replaced one before question is it possible not to take the exhaust off ? ie can it be lowered enough to remove the clevis pin without being a contortionist ??

In my experience the answer would have to be no. I've recently replaced mine as part of an under car refurb but I found that as the cable hadn't been replaced before (15 years), the split pin holding the clevis pin in place was rusted and wouldn't budge. Needed every bit of access in order to get it off at the handbrake end.
