Post Hand brake cables
Hi, Can anyone tell me what origin the Rossa handbrake cables are ? My list of Mini/ non Mini parts doesn't list the cables. They appear similar to Morris Minor 1000 cables with grease nipples incorporated. Anyone help. Keith

just gone through the whole of the build manual and although it mentions the cables a few times it never actually says what they were from. I always thought they were metro but not sure now.

Hi,

If you put "morris" into the forum search, Morris Minor handbrake cables do get a mention indirectly.

As far as I can tell from my Mk1 manual the cables came with the kit. Have you tried Rossabitz?

Thanks for all info. The part rebuilt car I bought has been stood around a long time. Had oil soaked cables but thought I had since broken one, however problem is cable has jumped out of retaining bracket at handbrake end as bracket has bent slightly. Now sorted but with age of cables had still thought of possibly needing replacements. Rossabitz lists at £33 a cable + vat. They maybe special to the Rossa and no alternative will fit.
