    if it still has the original drum brakes from the spitfire then the rear cable in the diagram jon W has posted connects to levers to the rear of the slave cylinders each side these are located on the brake back plates, it is important that the slave cylinders slide in there slots for the hand brake to work efficiently. hope this helps you [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
