arw57,

If you could give me the diameter of the section of the cable housing that sits in the bracket (will need to order a front cable) including the diameter of the 'narrowed' section I guess where the bracket bolt passes to lock the cable to the bracket. Then I can make the bracket. I have this bracket and others to wled back in place before I can send it to get grit blasted ready for paint.

Just remembered, I am still missing the spare tyre (you guys say 'tire') bracket that is welded to the rear crossmember - if someone has photos and dimensions for this bracket so I can fabricate would also be much appreciated.

Thanks, response and help so far has been fantastic.
