X-eng handbrake Reviews?

<< < (2/3) > >>

rustprooflandyracer:
I've got one fitted to my truck, It didn't half rattle when I fitted it, because of all the linkages. Bit of a b*****d to fit to be honest, having to fit longer bolts. You will understand when fitting it. Binds a bit as well when running in. So open the windows to get rid of the burning smell. Overall seems to hold better when locked in. No more contamination of the shoes. Really been doing some offroading and havn't damaged it yet. Pricey it is , however does have alot of benefits.

Cheers

Matt

As said before after I fitted mine it rattled like hell for ages .I check that it was running true but no difference till it calmed down.I found it a bitch to fit as well.Once it settled one face of the disc was marked.I used the original 200 Tdi brakecble and I didnt seem to get enough pull on it.Even if I adjusted the cable to give slack it didnt hold.The 300 Tdi has a good standard handbrake and I think I will be keeping that.If I can get round to it I think mine will go on E,blag along with the snorkel and tyres.

If you want to sell it John, how much are you asking?

I,m not sure .I,m hoping to get it off this weekend .I was going to put it on e,bay.Its better to get their handbrake cable as its a little bit longer and gives more adjustment.
