Not sure what you mean here? I have made some improvements to the quadrant lever on the caliper where the cable attaches to make it easier to assemble based on some past feedback.

My hand brake cables lined up perfectly, and are still working well.
Was a tad fiddly to fit, but never swore, so wasn't too bad

Ok no worries, i just say that as ive read some people say things about it. Maybe just getting it assembled or something, im not 100% sure. Its prob what you have sorted out.

Apologies if its already been stated, but is there a kit made for the later model rear axles yet or is it still in development?

Yup, I have made up a kit. The first one is being installed on a Vitara right now, so assuming that goes well they will be available soon.

Ben

Wait, what? Was my Vit the first of the later kit?

I lucked in the other day in Adelaide. Picked up a pair of Galant calipers from Lonsdale U-Pullit for $44.00 for my upcoming SQ425 rear disc conversion. When I did my SV420 conversion a few years back, I paid $175.00 for a pair from another wrecker in the same area. Not bad, $130-odd to have them removed for me...... I've got to say, after a few years living with the SV240 conversion, I'm still very happy with BenT's kit.
I'll be contacting BenT soon for the late model kit.
