Gold FFM Mightymetro 275 Posted April 30, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Just connected the handbrake cables back up and I’m sure they had a kind of C clip that held them to the caliper. I’ve looked at the parts diagram but can’t see anything listed. anyone any ideas ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gold FFM tomcattom 208 Posted April 30, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 I didn't take any off mine when I removed my handbrake cables, but given the level of bodgery on my car I've just asked the exact same question on my restoration thread. I'm normally used to seeing some sort of retaining clip. Neither my new or old cables seem to have any sort of groove for a clip, so I'm inclined to think there isn't anything.

Gold FFM Barrykearley 6,833 Posted April 30, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 Cables are clipped to the side of the trailing arm in two places each side using a girder clip. Not sure the exact size - other than I’ve got most other sizes in the van bar the ones I require. cef will stock them or ebay Quote Only here once Link to post Share on other sites
Gold FFM cweeden 170 Posted April 30, 2020 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 There are no retaining clips holding the cable outer to the calliper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gold FFM Mightymetro 275 Posted May 1, 2020 Author Gold FFM Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 Thanks Guys, I was pretty methodical labelling all the bolts etc that came off the car but I just didn’t know if I had pinged them off and forgot about them cables are already attached to the radius arm clips Quote Link to post Share on other sites
