F6 van handbrake cables

[Lobster]

Maybe a stupid question however I will ask anyway..... need a o/s handbrake cable for my van as existing one has a split, are they the same as a GTL of the same age or are they specific to the F6 ?

Thanks

hi lobster again
a question for you instead how old is you r van ?
MGUEZ ordered 2 new ones for his just quoting R2370 oval plate but renault have supplied the older dash board type cables (same as R6 1108 ) he needs later floor mount

my PR 900 book is at work so cant give you part numbers today as looked them up for him last week and they are listed as different to car (GTL)
dont forget F6 is longer wheelbase
they may be same as mk1 R5 with rear drums from memory ?

Hello!

Its a 1985 / C oval plate 2370........ I was assuming they would be different to a GTL with the longer wheelbase and all but don't know if they are still available from Renault?

Thanks

well in that case i can let you know soon as matt orders some from renault what happens as his is c reg 2370 as well or you could PM him as he is not on here as often as me

quick update PR 900 book now living at home so part numbers are (or were)
R2370 later type 7704001811

r4 gtl R1128 later type 7704001812

when you look up 5 mk1 it lists both numbers depending on cast or pressed rear arms
with some having 1 of each so maybe lengths are close enough to use whatever is available ?

i do have a massive unsorted collection of genuine cables if you get stuck but it is not easily acessible at the moment

cheers paul
