The 2WD e-brake cables are part # 251-609-701C. They are 1473mm long.
The Syncro uses different cables left and right. Right is part #
251-609-702, 1390mm long and the left cable ends as 702D, 1436mm long.
The offset keeps the compensator from bouncing and hitting the center
drive shaft. There is a bushing where the cable goes into the chassis,
part # 251-609-719B and the clamp that holds the cable to the trailing
arm is #N-020-620-1. For under $20, the complete brake shoe spring set
(both sides), is #251-698-545.

Subject: comparing e-brake lines: syncro to 2wd

I am wondering HOW the syncro emergency brake cables
are different than the 2wd.

I have one well respected fine 'gent say it PROBABLY
doesn't make much of a difference, but couldn't verify
that with any statistical reasoning.

So, for someone that has a syncro and a 2wd... please
crawl under your rigs and see how the 2wd and syncro
e-brake cables are different. AND can the 2wd cables
be  used in a syncro?

I am deprived and only have syncros.

Thanks
