Andy
   Had you thought of mounting it closer to master cylinder?
 Cool
Do you mean put the res on th mc bracket?

Yes, make bracket to fit the upper bolt that holds mc to chassis, with shorter connecting hose Smiley

that's a thought! I was originally going to mount it above the rear caliper height. Maybe with the residual pressure valve i don't need to.

Started on the handbrake while I ponder the remote reservoir position. Made a plate to bolt it to and welded it in. the lever has a rod coming out at right angles which goes through 2 rubber bushes on the frame. I will run the cables along the centre of the frame to the compensator thingy and then on to a tang on the rotating cross rod.

Nice work!

Can't imagine that bending a brake disc would be very easy to achieve! Or is it just serverly warped?

And a clamp for the handbrake cables. I can cut the sheath of the outside now and run the inners under the three screws on each arm. The idea is that the scews will hold the cable, and the lock nuts will keep the screws from rattling out.

Scalloped the tube for the adjuster to help hold the nut at each end while it was welded in.
