So...I am sure this has been asked before but, I looked and couldn’t find anything on it. I acquired a Concept 1 straight axle conversion transmission, Drum to drum. After bolting it up I am trying to get the parking brake hooked up. I have the cable extender pieces but when I put it together the cable seems to be way too short like about 4-5 inches I would guess. I have brand new bus Brake cables of the correct year. The rear drums are Beetle or type 3 not sure which (4 lug) I used the beetle ends to hold back the cables, but should I use bus ones? It would allow the cable housing to move into the backing plate a couple more inches. As the ends of the cable housings are different. Do the bus style bolt up correctly? That would get me closer but still likely short. Can anyone help me out here before I waist a whole bunch of time screwing around with it? Thanks.
