Hi,

Ive recently installed my shortened r31 diff with standard r31 calipers into my 1200 ute. The only thing I have left to do is somehow configure a working handbrake so I can pass rego. Was wondering what setups people have used in the past? I have all the original handbrake gear from the skyline that a pulled the diff from. Not too keen on the maddat setup with the reversed rear calipers either.

Cheers!

There is some information at BW78 Rear Axle Swap

Open in new window


Coops pocketed the R31 pulley thing, cut the bracket off & drilled to suit the 1200 adjustment bracket.

Not a bad little set up! Ive got something similar in my head. But I'll have to mount it in a different position due to my brake line splitter being installed there. Do you know if he had to get aftermarket hand brake cables made?

Yes, he did a detailed write-up. See BW78 Rear Axle Swap and click the links to discussion and click the photos.
