could anyone tell me where i could find some pictures of handbrake cable brackets attached to a live rear axle ?The passenger side one is not a problem because i have a picture of this and it looks easy enough.But the other side looks quite tricky and i can t work out where it can go . Help needed please ?

No brackets on my live axle (Cortina). Cables (shortened Cortina) go straight to the brake assembly. Cables secured to the axle with narrow st. st jubilee type clips about half way along each side just to stop the cables flapping about.
