How long will a handbrake cable replacement take on my Jeep?

Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Jeep handbrake cable?
The handbrake is important in a variety of situations, such as hill starts, parking on any non flat area and is of course part of the MOT checks. So if the vehicle fails to remain stationary when the handbrake is applied then it is likely that a cable needs replacing.

How long do handbrake cables last on my Jeep?
Handbrake cables typically last as long as the car does if they are properly maintained. However, this is an ideal scenario, ultimately how long a handbrake cable will last depends on how the car is used. For example, if the handbrake is overused, the cables can get stretched over time.
