i was wondering if anyone knew how to rig up an e brake cable for cheap. as of right now i need the whole thing replaced and i priced it at 100 bucks for parts. has anyone rigged one up before or have any ideas for me?
$100 seems cheap enough. Fix it right the first time instead of jerry rigging some shit out of bicycle brake cables.
Call NAPA, Autozone, and Advance for replacements. ALWAYS call several stores for pricing since it may differ quite a bit.
You cant really rig a brake cable effectively.
the only thing ive ever rigged was the adjustment collar. that was simple as pie with stainless hose clamps. But for a 100 just do it right
Also try www.rockauto.com if you aren’t in a hurry. I haven’t ordered from them so I can’t really say if their customer service is great, but I found their prices were a lot better than the local stores on some stuff.
i’ve ordered from them a few times. shipping is as expected, and i cant recall any problems - so, no cust service experience to speak of.
ya i checked it out. 50 bucks for all of it
^ :tup:
I really need to start planning my repairs out a little better so I can save money with them too.
