Haywood, do you know what spare parts would fit and I need to buy a complete kit, lever, cables, caliper etc. ??
Well my only answer for that is how good is your imagination?
ASSuming you have a Jag IRS first generation rear end assy?
The handle and cable will be the EZ parts to fabricate.
Its the caliper and mounting that will take a lil work I suppose.
Prolly best to pose that question on the Aurora Cars forum and wait for a response from someone that has already replaced or rebuilt their handbrake assy.

Gotta be someone there thats been there, done that and got the tshirt?
Maybe even someone that has gotten a lil creative and installed a "Drifting" hand brake?

I'm having my own fun with creative engineering on my current project.
Stuffing a Cummins diesel 3.9 4BT twin turbo into a 2008 Jeep 4dr Wrangler with an Eaton Roadranger Fuller transmission.

Haven't even thought about a parking brake as yet as not sure if I'm gonna be a 2wd or a 4wd as yet?
Parking brake on a 4wd would be a disc off of a transfer case.
On a 2wd it may be on the driveshaft?

Best to post that inquiry on the Aurora Cars forum and hope for the best if you can't get creative on your own?

And yeah if you were wondering about the Eaton Roadranger Fuller trans scenario.......I will be a shifting fool on that one until I hit highway speed.
