    Default Ra23 -> Hilux Diff Handbrake Cable

    Has anyone got a quick and easy way of doing the RA23 to RN25 Hilux diff handbrake cable?

    It's about time I did mine, and I haven't been able to find any way / person to make one for me.

    hi are you using the RN25 drum brake or MA70 disk brake?

    if its the MA70 setup the standard hand brake cables work

    yeh, im not sure about what you can use. but as said, you can get them made. so give them, lengths and the fittings, and they will make a cable up for you.
    i dont have a funny or cool signature.

    Ian - Thanks mate, I'll check it out. Also, I found that my base intake gaskets are paper, but my top ones are metal if you still want them?

    Silver - Thanks mate, I'll check them out too!

    hi dan
    the led,s he makes are the mustang type ,although he is working on other types
    you can buy LED replacement globes for your car they work quite well
    re gaskets
    that would be great
    as i work around your way tuesdays
    the paper ones as well if you can
    thanks
    ian
