[Mgs] 79 MGB handbrake

The rectangular box is suspended rather than bolted to the car.  Tightening
the handbrake cable basically shortens the length of the cable between the
handbrake levers on each rear brake, pulling them toward each other and
distributing the force evenly.

Why does it look like the way the cable is configured, only the drivers side
wheel will brake, not the passenger side? It has no compensator, only a
rectangular box mtg.
