It was worth it until the price increased

Very good cables! I have bought many of these in the past before they increased the price. I found almost the same cables for $40 cheaper.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • High price

quality product. for the brake system

Great universal brake cable set. I used them on a Camaro 67 that had the rear brakes changed to LS1 brakes. They look great and the quality is better than expected.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Good universal e-brake cables.

This was a simple rear disc brake replacement I did on my 1971 Chevy C10. Easy to cut and install. I did some customization for the factory cables, so I didn't use them the way Lokar intended, but it worked great.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

More convenient than gluing parts of three or more cars.

Literally a few feet from 5 stars, although it was just long enough for my truck, I had to set the handle back quite a bit to keep it from being too short. I adapted the end of the wheel to my Dana 60 HD Full Float by cutting the factory cables and using the springs and clips from them. I would also consider adding some thin (very thin) washers to the attachment on the skid plates if you are using a heavy duty axle. My factory wiring holes are big enough that the locar pieces barely go through…

Pros
  • Pretty package
Cons
  • Secret

Good if the factory cables no longer fit.

The parking brake was repaired superbly when I moved the rear wheels back a few inches and added suspension travel. There were only two things I had to deal with. My rear drum brakes are smaller than regular ones so I had to trim the spring to fit them. When installing the brake, I then had to make a new adapter because I wanted to use my factory handbrake and had to use clamps to tension the cable and clamp the steel cables. (I had to do this a few times to get it tight enough after…

Pros
  • Excellent value for money
Cons
  • Only available in black
