Emergency Brake alternative?

[Daron]

Ok, so I need to do an emergency brake on my rear disk brake conversion... I kinda like this idea however. It couldnt cost much to do.

ive seen people do this on rockcrawlers and other off-road devices, they are usually cable operated and not too expensive. Yours looks real good though

Re: Emergency Brake alternative?

My question would be as to why you want to do it?,just for something different on a sy/ty? That form of e-brake has been around for awhile, so it's not unique to automotive application.
