89 780 broken Emergency Brake

Post by dcunited122 »

Hello,

I have an 89 780 turbo and it won't pass inspection because of a broken emergency brake. Is repairable and how difficult is it to repair? Its a pretty nice car so I would hate for it to go to waste because of an emergency brake. Also, where could I find replacement parts?

Thanks in advance

Sorry for the late reply. What exactly is broken on the emergency brake?

Most parts are available from: http://www.fcpgroton.com/VolvoBrakes/volvo780brakes.htm
