Title: Hand brake installation
Post by: Brennie on October 12, 2021, 14:46:30

Hi
Can somebody please tell me the function of part 20 in this diagram?
Also, is there a washer that is supposed to go between the handbrake and the car body?
Thank you

The diagram on the link above shows the pin, a washer or spring washer and a bush

The picture of all of the handbrake components are on this post, can't see any horseshoe shaped washers, just standard washers

Item 20 is a wave washer

A washer that is bent to create tension on the threads.  Similar to a split washer or lock washer.
