hand brake (drum to disc)

[Bing]

So, after putting on the new disc rear, I realized the ebrake cables on the disc brakes are shorter than the drum one, so they are about 4 inches from the bracket thingy that's connected to the hand brake handle.

Any easy solutions to that? Preferably no welding or metal fabrication.

Don't think i really NEED ebrake, but it would be nice

what car? when i did my disc brake nightmare swap ebrake hooked right up, 95 camaro

90 camaro RS
88 rearend

Adjustment wouldn't work, cus even if that bracket moves to the farest position, it still won't reach the cables.

:(

i dunno about the 3rd gens, but 4th gen interchanges. you may need the thing from the ebrake itself to the cables for disc.

yea thats prob what you need is the cable from the e-brake handle to the spreader bar off of a rear disk car. now putting a ls1 rear in a 3rd gen i can tell you how to do that

[Bing]

for now no ebrake, yeh!

Thanks guys

i need your expertise lol... i just installed my LS1 rear into my third gen, and am wondering how to hook up the ebrake cables. they seem to be about 10 or so inches short from the spreader bar thing. amu suggestions would be GREAT! lol :)
