Looking for Mk 2 hand brake hardware
I need the two clevis fork pieces that attach the rear end of the hand brake cable to the pivot arm on the differential case on my Mark 2. These are items 8 and 10 in the shop manual illustration of the hand brake system.
Anyone have a good used set you'd be willing to part with?
Thanks.

I am not using the all stock pieces, let me look and see what your talking about. Use this illustration, anything on the diff/rear end I will not be using.

I am looking for the little piece shown in the images below. I could get this little piece rechromed but it would cost much more than the part is worth. Do you happen to have a good rust free example?

OK, here's a tip. The Mark 2 handbrake mechanism has a compensator mechanism mounted on the rear axle whereby the handbrake cable movement is converted to lateral pulls on the cables to the actual handbrake calipers. It can pivot to compensate for different movement in each caliper. Jaguar provided beautiful bronze bearings on this compensator, but no provision for lubrication whatsoever, so they tend to be neglected and seize. What I did back in the 80s was get a nut welded onto the side that took a grease nipple. A simple drill-through gave a passage for the grease, (or one can use heavy grade oil). Result, a handbrake that carries on working !
