  • Rear handbrake auto adjust levers

    Hi I have a marina based mk1 marlin and I'm looking for a set of rear handbrake auto adjust levers and the clips that holds them in place, new or second hand I'm not fussy. I have attached a picture of Blue Marlin's who was kind enough to let me take a couple of pictures yesterday

    My '67 MK2 Ford Cortina used exactly the same type of auto adjust. Not sure if it's exactly the same size but worth a check for possible source of old parts!

      One side on mine was snapped off, must have been difficult to do that to spring steel! No ill effect I just have to manually adjust the ratchet. Making a hole in the back plate would make it easier, but don't forget to grommet the hole!
