Randall,
Sorry to disagree... but the TR4s did not use a right angle drive. TR4As did
and moved the hand brake to between the seats. The TR4 gearbox cover has the
same type access hole and rubber boot tied into the handbrake as the TR3/A. I
have mine hooked up with an extra long "TR3 Overdrive" cable from TRF. The
regular TR4 cable is advertised as long enough to reach but is just a bit too
short to allow for gentle turns.
