I just finished manufacturing and installing some drink holders in my vehicle.

I used Geniune Bundy Rum drink coolers, the Ned Kelly type ones that are probably made in China, and secured them with high quality Tek screws, probably made in China also. The design and installation of these drink coolers is perfect for those rough type tracks where your drink needs to be held firmly in place.

I can make some more if people are interested and post them out for maybe $100 each.

i ws waiting for someone to notice that. Because the handbrake cables are located behind the diff, running parallel with the diff, they tend to get mashed up on rocks, so that's what happened to mine, so i gave up on having a handbrake. I just park with it in gear, or if it's on a hill of any kind, i park against a tree just in case.

if you want a handbrake steve you should go the hydralic version

Use these part numbers for the right size one

PBR P5060 = 5/8"
PBR P4872 = 3/4"
Image

Then you can booty fab up a bracket like this to suit, split your rear line and then you have a hand brake

Image

Don't look at the price as $350 as it should only cost about $35 for amaster cylinder. get Royce to chase down a price for you.

you could always mount it on the rear wall too vertically so that you drink holders are more accesable

Hydraulic Hbrakes aren't legal for NSW I believe, however rules may have changed... Dunno about QLD.
