Handbrake Cable Routing
Started fitting the handbrake cables yesterday and was told by a friend that i have to grind some of the diff away to get some clearence for the
cables to run. See pic..

just noticed your cables seem to run under the 50x25mm rhs member.
mine run through it in tubes, so i suppose you might have to remove even more material then i did.

Mine's got the holes through the crossmember too for the cables to pass through.
You couldn't pwn your way out of a wet paper bag, with "PWN ME!!" written on it, from the "pwned take-away" which originally contained one
portion of chicken tikka pwnsala and the obligatory free pwnpadom.

Yes mine has holes below but the cables are tight to the diff.
Looks like i will have to take the diff out again and start grinding!!

Mine go through the holes fine, then go over the diff. Using a couple of P clips to guide them. I bend the P Clips so they have a 45 degree twist in
them. This allows the cables to have a guide with not too much stress. They then guide down the the front of the wheels via another P clip on the
edges of the frame. Seems to work OK. The cable operates fine with a nice 5 clicks to full on.
