I installed a new cable from S.P.
It seems to be a little too long.
I adjusted the end (at the wheel) to the maximum and there is no more thread
to take up cable slack.
As it stands, full emergency brake is enough to prevent the vehicle from
rolling down a small incline.
1. Can I tamper with anything where the cable connects under the middle of
the rear end?

The cable I replaced went OVER the axle which I see has left a wear in the
brake line.  This does not seem right.
It could go under the axle but that seems wrong.
2a.Where should the brake line go?


Doug - SV - (also needs ball joints and rings.)
