T4 Handbrake Cable From Lever To Divider 1990-97

This front handbrake cable connects the handbrake lever inside the cab to the rear divider/compensating lever on all VW Transporter T4 models produced from the start of production up to May 1997 (up to chassis number 70W039000). Measuring 1000mm in length and supplied complete with the protective seal, this cable is an essential component for maintaining effective handbrake operation and correct tension throughout the system.

The front handbrake cable transmits the pull from the handbrake lever directly to the rear compensating bar, which then distributes braking force equally to both rear brake cables. Over time, original cables can stretch, seize, corrode, or lose efficiency—especially on vehicles exposed to road salt and moisture. Replacing a worn cable ensures smoother handbrake engagement, restores proper brake balance, and helps keep your T4 safe and roadworthy.

This cable is compatible with all T4 vans and Syncro 4WD models up to the specified chassis number. Installation is straightforward, and it is recommended to check the condition of the compensator bar, rear handbrake cables, and guide tubes while performing the replacement. A fresh seal included with the cable helps protect the handbrake assembly from dirt and moisture ingress.
