Nobody out there knows the answer? I have down loaded a lot of carrier pictures and if any one has a bunch of pictures them selves have a good look at the handle on the MK1 and MK2 carriers and they are bent in different directions. It does not make sense to me as both MK1 and 2 have the same drivers compartment layout ?

Dave, a few thoughts.
If the MkI and MkII are different, then it may be about an improvement in access. to grab the thing from the right side of the steeing wheel is probably harder to do, than from the left.
I think Jordan was talking about one from a Jeep trailer. There should be part numbers on them. They are a pig of a thing because that rod on the inside binds at the bend. I cant see the brace interfering with either a left or right bent one, but a straight one would be awkward too.( and not correct)

Off subject a little but early Loyds had a straight hand brake lever while the later ones like mine are bent to the right, this is reflected in the parts books. Perhaps this came from a common design review following field experiance?
