Brake Cables

Post by Terry B. »

I purchased (ouch) new brake cables from AS and S and was wondering if anyone has a photograph of how they should be mounted. Mainly looking for which sides of the tubing they should be routed. It looks like either way I run them, they make some contact or are close to the front to rear pedal conection rods. If anyone has a photo or link to photos, could you let me know? My email is tbledsoe@austin.rr.com . Ideally a photo taken from the front looking back between the floorboards and the covering would be great.

Thanks

Terry
