Hi,
I recently bought some handbrake cables to fix my JA. However, it was the left caliper that seized that was all the problem.
Double check that it's actually the cables that are shot by getting the cable released from the caliper(s) and pull to see if there is movement in the cable.

If the handbrake cable is definitely the problem, then I have a couple spare at $40 each plus post etc. Each unit is completely intact as per factory.

Thanks for your quick reply JDSTAZ45,

The cable seems to be jammed inside itself, which was holding the handbrake on for quite some time, currently the caliper is moving freely. I had a mechanic look at it, and he says a new cable would sort it out.

I'm interested in purchasing both cables from you, I have the cash ready. Please PM me your PayPal details or however you would like payment

Much appreciated. :D

I don't have time to check right now... But I'm pretty sure I've seen them for sale brand new, on ebay out of the US for a not horrendous price?
