Emergency brake cables
Boy, I'm having a heck of a time with this one...
I recently replaced my 4 wheel drum brakes with front and rear disc kits from Stainless Steel Brakes Corp. My rear emergency brake cables do not work with the new rear calipers, and I cannot find anyplace that sells ones that work, or can custom make them. I cannot be the first person who put rear disc brakes on an A-body that needed new cables. Somebody must make some. Anybody know where I can buy some, or have them made?

The instructions that came with the kit says "If your stock parking brake cables are not compatible, it may be necessary to purchase other cables or have custom cables made. These parts are NOT available from SSBC." -- direct quote.
No info on their website, I did send an email, but no reply yet.

Of course..."we disavow any knowledge"...
I see in the gallery on their website that there are several a-body GM cars with the owner's name, city and email address. That might be a good resource, too. I'd email several of them because there may be more than one good answer to the problem. C.J.

Good idea. I browsed their gallery and found a beautiful 69 W-31 convertible. The owner upgraded both front and rear to disc, so I shot him off an email.
Thanks for the tip! Hopefully he'll reply...
