Heljan VBA brake gear

Hi all

 

Having finally gotten round to unboxing my VBA van, I note that there are two loose handbrakes in the box and seemingly no instructions.

 

There are no obvious ways of attaching although I know they go from the V hanger so I'm wondering if anyone can recommend the best glue to use to keep them on there - and if there's a good reason why they aren't attached in the first place?

​Many thanks

A famous problem that seemed to aflict almost all these HJ vans. :mad: the "good reason" they're loose being the actually rather pathetic reason that they weren't glued properly in the first place. :shout:

 

I just used some UHU contact adhesive, a bit on each surface & let it go tacky before joining parts; leaves a little bit of 'give' to them so the levers shouldn't get broken off again.
