Default Park Brake Cable path

Hi all,

I've a problem with my park brake cable path. It's blocked on the nut of stabilizer bar link. If I move it then it comes back automatically here.



Obviously, it's damaged:





I tried to flip the piece on top of the stabilizer bar link but I'm not convinced:




So my question: what is the path of this cable ?

Thanks,

Laurent

it rides on top of a rubber pad mounted on top of the sway bar link nut. your path is correct

they are all worn in that area even with the pad

Thanks for your answer.

I looked at the part numbers on the SNG catalog but unfortunately these parts are unavailable.

I made a packing from some nylon bar, cut a length,made a dome on the top with a grinder,drill a pilot hole and use force to wind it on.

EDIT: would a suitable dome nut ease the issue?

I think about a dome nut but it will not prevent the cable to move away. My problem is the French MOT which states the cable is not well attached. So I'm trying to figure out a way to attach it.
