Hi Tony,

Yes I know the feeling o being a guinea pig. Usually after weeks of searching and fruitless enquires and buying something not quite correct someone says to me have you tried "Joe Blogs" he has dozens of them!

I have two ideas which may be of help:

You may have heard of Flexible Drive here in Melbourne. They make control cables for all types of applications. I have never dealt with them but perhaps they could be of assistance to make up new ones to the required dimensions. Just Google their website. Has any MLU members had any experience with them?

The other thing is Dirk Leegwatter had cables with Part No. C01Q 2275B which were 86" long on the inner cable but the conduit was about the same length of 40-1/2" as the F15/F15-A cables. If the inner cable could be shortened you could have the handbrake cables you need if you cannot find the correct F15 ones.

Does anyone know hot the ball end of those cables are secured to the cable? Spot welded?, Brazed?

Food for thought anyway.

Cheers,
