Nice one but that cat looks like it still has it's tail.

The Kids when they were small tried to pull the tail off all the time.

What are you looking for specifically..... the linkage.... the brake handle on the cab floor...... my C15a had a winch fitted in by the previoud owner.

It is a tight fit but canbe done...... Phil Waterman also had a cab 12 C60 fitted with a winch........

I assume you T case is a transplanted 2 speed to drive the winch....

I got a bunch of pictures at home I can send you.... just need help to figure out which ones you might need....

Hi Bob,The C15 has been stretched by 500mm so it will fit in no problems and yes i do have a 2 speed tx box.Photos of the brake set up and the cab assy of the hand brake it's self would be very helpful.

John,
1st pic is the winch hanbrake (back lever) in the cab, 2nd is the linkage rod to to mounting bracket at brake, 3rd is looking up (under Cab) at the spring loaded linkage joining on to the lower part of the hand brake lever.
Did you know that the winch eqipped had a different top on the t'case tower for the pawl on the gear lever when engaging the PTO? you can manage without it though.

Once again i thank you Richard for solving yet another problem of mine,i will be finishing the brake installation tomorrow.I put the gearbox back together tonight with mostly new gears and bearings.Feels like a new one when i turn the new input shaft and all for about $400.I will post some photos tomorrow night of the day work.
