I am planning my winter projects and one of them is to get my 3.73 posi S10 rear in the MGB V8. I have decided to stay with drums and seem to recall someone out there made a a kit to hook up the emergency brake with this set up.

Anyone Know?

Keith, D&D used to carry emergency brake kit for S10 rear axle. I do not see it on their web page but you should give them a call.

Keith, I used a Lokar E-Brake kit to attach to Ford 8.8. Cable attachment should be similar for the Ford or Chevy. It comes with the outer and inner components. Good Luck.

yes Keith, that is similar. My kit came from Summitt, but sure they are same. the hole in the MGB lever had to be enlarged for the larger bolt , but no problem
