[Spridgets] Hand brake cable

There are universal brake cable adjusters, if you have room. Take a picture
of this into your FLAPS.  Bill in Oregon

My hand brake cable  is stretched out to the limit if its adjustment, but
otherwise appears to be fine.  Frank has said the new Chinese ones stretch
out instantly, as well.  What is the solution?  Does it make sense to try to
rig some kind of spacer?

 

A thought:  My car is made of misc. parts.  Is there a difference in the
length of the rods for later models?  The VB catalogue lists A, B, and C
parts, but there is no indication of the differences.
