Hi all
have recently acquired an old 86 HJ75 Traybacj fitted with rear disc brakes (? normal). i have fitted the cable but for the life of me I cannot get the handbrake to work on the rear discs. Im beginning to think the discs are aftermarket fit and the handbrake connections on the rear discs (opposite side to calipers) are just there for looks. Anybody have any ideas or can let me know how they work without me having to pull the whole rear housing apart?

Gday
Without looking at it, id say you have a late model rear diff, but maybe you also have front discs with ford or subaru callipers too....
Best way out of this is to fit a hudraulic handbrake like the rally cars use, but the legal way is to fit a 40 series rear housing and handbrake to the transfer case....that fixes everything.
