Rear Brakes

I found the easiest way to route the break cable outer was to feed in from the exit hole on both drag links, rather that trying to pry it out by feeding in from the pod end. Then feed the inner cable in from the pod end down both cables outers. Lubricating them as well is easier at this point.

Parking brake. As soon as the rear brakes are tensioned up the parking brake lever becomes tight. This is normal. Mainair fit elastic bungee to hold it from engaging on the inspection. Don't be tempted to loosen it up too much as it has little effect, and the nyloc must always show thread to be effective. Note that the teeth of the parking brake lever face up, and is positioned in between the two pins on the brake pedal.
