i've had a few pm's in regards to how to get a workable handbrake in a KE when using an S or T series with AE86 cables. this also applies to T18 diffs and cables into an 86 but be smart and switch the cables http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/laugh.gif
now from memory there is one bolt in option
KE70 + T series + T18 cables
others need to be done like this
KE70 + T or S series + AE86 cables = Gillyspec super custom mounting
basically the cables aren't long enough to reach the hanbrake lever section if you use the original KE mounting points so you need to improvise and use them but a little differently
pics show how its done
i've used this method in both my KE's and never had a drama
basically the bolt is tensioned onto the steel cable surround and stops it from falling out. now when the cable is pulled tight it will want to go towards the front of the car however
1. the bolt is holding it tight
2. the bolt is stopping any forward movement as it is contacting a lip which prevents it from moving forward.
