Parking Cables on rear PBR converion
Hoping JamesC is reading this, I know he's got the same setup. I'm finally finishing up this rear PBR conversion on my '85. I have the 1434mm cables, but when I installed the driver side the the parking cable is very taught like its not routed correctly. Does anyone have a picture illustrating the routing?

It doesn't show the PBR set up but if you copy the left side it should work. I also thought the standard routing put tight bends in the cables so I've changed mine to run under the axle. They are loosely wired to the sway bar to stop them sagging. Seems like a more natural routing for the cables.

I didn't really have any issues I just didn't like the tight bend with the over axle routing and I noticed the cables I have are quite worn where they go over the axle.

I used guides.
