I've been having problems with the handbrake not locking on, so decided to investigate. I removed the handbrake and found the pawl looked a bit worn. A light regrind of the flat which engages with the quadrant seems to have solved the problem. It was just a long winded process removing the seats and the tunnels to get to the handbrake lever but it did give me the opportunity to grease the UJs and the clutch mechanism.
