Hi Malcolm

I’m just trying to set up a dropped axle and un-coupled brakes.  Like you I was a bit concerned about cable routing.  However now the axle is on the car the cables seem to work OK.  I have about an 3/4” of vertical clearance between the cable and chassis. The only slight problem are the adjusters on the brake cables that are quite close to the radius arms on full lock.  I’m swapping the cables for the non adjustable type which I hope should give about 3/8” lateral clearance.  I am using long levers.

I would be very interested to know exactly where the routing problem was on your car. Any further comments gratefully received.

Cheers

Howard
