Talking Re: Show me your rear parking brake cable with lift

Many years ago I called for cables for my 6" lift and he flat out told me he only did OEM spec. I already knew exactly what I needed. He builds to order and I convinced him it was nothing he couldn't do 100% OEM, except in for my specified length. He was hesitant and said if they were wrong he wasn't responsible. I said, "Right!", and he made them and they worked out fine. This was over 10 years ago and I have told people about Inline tube many times over till it became common knowledge here on this site. I also had a longer braided stainless rear brake hose made and bought proper fitting t-block and rear axle (HO52) brake line in that order. I had bought the Skyjacker(?) 4-6" braided hose kit and the fronts worked fine but the rear hose had an incompatible size fitting which would have required a series of adapting hard line to cobble together. Their stuff bolted right in place and my truck was put together right!
Thanks Special-K!

Bringing this back from the dead thread, but we've been searching for cables for the rear of our 1970 GMC K2500 that has needed LOTS of things.

I appreciate your posting information about your experience.

I just bought them from InlineTube (over eBay) based solely on your recommendation here. (No pressure!)

I'll follow up after we get them installed how they fit.
