Ssxa Posted November 1 Report Share Posted November 1 Anybody have a diagram or pics of how the parking brake is hooked up and routed for a 1973 1200 coupe? My car was missing all of the parts and I'm trying to get it operational. I bought a handle and know it usually uses a cable that ties into a junction with two cables that attach to the rear brakes. I don't see where the cable goes from the handle and how it routes out from the inside. Quote Link to comment

Hope this helps, I would take pictures but rear end is out of my 1200 at the moment. 1 Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted November 1 Report Share Posted November 1 The 1200 handbrake handle cable goes through a hole in the floor sheetmetal underneath the car (below the back seat) Connects to the differential cable (#1) which goes through a splitter (#2, #3). The splitter is bolted to the rear of the axle housing Quote Link to comment
