Dudes, I am almost done with the 8 lug-3/4 ton drivetrain swap on the 'nali, the only thing left to do is getting the ebrake cables hooked up to the actuator levers on the new axle. I believe I can get the passenger side connected with a minor mod but the driver side cable is way too short to make it work, hook a brutha up with a solution...I will grab some pics in a bit and upload, cheers.

The first pic is the passenger side and the cable reached the bracket ok. The second pic shows the driver side, as you can see, the cable needs to go further up and into the bracket but it is way too short. I tried using the ebrake cables from the donor vehicle but they just won't mate to the original set up. Any ideas out there?

You're going to have to make them. I think the passenger side can be shortened if you have the tools and know how. The other side will need a new cable and then move the fittings around. Truck shops carry universal PTO cables that would work with modifications. Need to order the right length.
