Parking brake photos?

I did not get the parking brake handle with my kit. I bought the Lokar floor mount and located the mounting holes to catch as much of the bracket as possible. It seems to be a less than perfect attachment, but I think it is adequate. I do not have pictures and it's difficult now to get anything worth looking at for installation purposes.

I ended up changing my brakes to Wilwoods with a drum type parking brake. In part, this was due to my concern that my wife would never be able to pull the handle to set the parking brake with the B&B supplied rear calipers. It also lessened concerns over the strength of the parking bracket. If I had left the B&B calipers in place, I would have installed additional support for the parking brake bracket.

B&B provides a bracket to the rear of the floor mount location for the cables to terminate. This works well with the recommended cables. However, the cables B&B recommended were a little long. When I changed to the Wilwoods, I went with the Lokar cables that allowed me to cut to fit. The Lokar cables also work well with the brackets installed on the B&B frame. I would recommend the Lokar cables so long as the cable end will work with your caliper.
