TR2/3/3A Hand Brake Lever Fork

[PatGalvin]

Hello everyone.

Anyone have a "Fork End to Handbrake Lever" that they are willing to part with? Part No. 27 in diagram. It appears that I was too hasty in tossing my old hand brake lever and I failed to strip it of this critical and hard to find part. Not available at any of the parts houses that I've checked (and I think I checked them all). Much appreciated.

I saw this:

I may have one...but I have not looked under Marv's old car yet to see if it's still there.

I figure I have one around here as well. Just let me know.

Thanks John

The Ebay fork is a good fall back if I can't drum one up here on the forum. I appreciate the lead. Marv, I'll PM you.

Pat,

I have one. I remembered it hanging on the wall, with a broken length of cable attached to it, for the longest time. I started cleaning up some of the unusable parts a few months back. Today, I found it in the scrap metal bin. The threaded cable end was still 'froze' to the clevis, but a little heat and Pblaster freed it. Pm me with your physical address, and I'll send it to you. -My way of saying thanks for the body-work/paint videos and information you send me some time back.

I did not have one when I was working on my 3. I made one out of steel strap and heated and bent to make the fork and drilled a hole and put nuts on each side to lock the cable in place. Not original but works.

Page 47 of the attached catalogue has cable fork ends in various sizes. Possibly one of these will fit the bill.
