am running wilwood rear handbrake powerlite calipers. looking for a bracket to join the 2 rear cables to the handbrake cable. understand it's called a handbrake quadrant or handbrake fork. any ideas anyone?

Do you mean the half-moon thingy on the standard Sierra handbrake cable?
I am using the Wilwood handbrake calipers and just used the standard Sierra jobbie - a bit crude but it works well.

Raz, where did you buy the quadrant thingy from? I'm after the same. If from Ford then do you have the part # as everytime I go to my Ford Dealer he asks for chassis number and as I havent got a Ford chassis its difficult

mine came with my new sierra handbrake cable.

It really is just the standard handbrake cable iirc. I think you just have to be persistent and say that it's for any S I E R R A. They will eventually get the message and find one.

I adapted mine from a CRX. What I like about it is that it has adjustment. There is a photo of it on in my photo archive.

Not sure how to post them on here yet.

that crx one looks like a mondeo one too, not sure if mondeo has the adjuster

I just used a pulley from B&Q. Under a tenner.

yup. that half moon thingie is the bit i'm looking for. did you use solderless nipples (keep it clean!!) to attach on the powerlite cables? thanks bobster

No need to use the Powerlite cables - the standard Sierra cable fits fine .... and not a nipple in sight. When I ordered my Powerlites I didn't think about the handbrake cables but decided they fitted ok for the time being.

Actually I would be interested in having a look at the caliper end of your cables. I assume there are two separate cables which would need to be 'commoned' in some way and then connected to the lever cable.
