Lokar doesn't have the set up you need? If not, maybe you're thinking of Gennie Shifter?

Lokars cables are what I need except, the right side is to short, needs to be 5 feet for rear end I'am using. The hole on the driver side, for the brake, comes out of the fwd. side of the backing plate and the right side comes out of the aft side. So the cable needs to be longer to hook it up. 53 3100

Go to the download page on there web site for brake cable drawings and information. I had them make mine, '37 truck up front, '79 Trans Am on the back. Works perfect.

Don't expect Gennie to make anything, they're basically out of business.

Not sure why you don't want to go Lokar, but they're probably your best bet, unfortunately.
