Hand brake cable length
Gday again, well have got the new hand brake cables but need to shorten them, the way I figure it if I knew a measurement between two identifyable
points on a standard pan (front to back), then I would be able to check that measure on mine to figure out how much to shorten the cables. Anyone out
there able to help?
I dream of a day when a chicken can cross a road without being asked for it's motive!

yep, did that $65 per cable + shortening charge + postage or go down there to get them and I still need to tell them the length. Place in Queensland
$33 the pair landed at my home and a place in Newie will shorten them for $10 per cable including the threaded fitting.
