Thanks for the info on the brake cables.

I'm looking at a 14 bolt rear axle swap and it has parking brakes at the wheel, looks like the original 1 ton brake cables will fit the newer axle/brakes. That will be simpler than also swapping a transmission parking brake, though those do work really well. Perhaps I could send them the hardware to reuse from the modern cables.
