Little tiny rubber handbrake cable boot on type44 calipers

[Kurt Deschler]

Super glue will hold the torn rubber boot together excellent. Just clean 
the surface good with brake cleaner and make sure the torn edges are 
aligned. I did this on a caliper piston seal and it held excellent. I also 
used to repair VCR belt this way and they would stay together for years.
