Handbrake Spring

Post by SuperRedMR2 »

When adjusting the handbrake, has anyone noticed the spring that connects to the lug on the chassis and the rod of the mechanism?

Mine has no tension in it at all, if this was tighter would the handbrake work more efficiently?

No it just aids cable return at the lever end.
