Underbody Cable

Underbody Cable
Hi,
Can anyone provide me with a name of the cable attached in a semi-X pattern underneath the vehicle? I think I may be missing a couple of hooks as the pictures I’ve seen online of other undercarriages have hooks to hold some tension by about where the mufflers are.
Maybe if if I know what’s it’s called I can try and find some of the hooks online somewhere. Also, how taut/tight is this cable supposed to be?

It sounds like the intermediate emergency brake cable. There should be 1 large hook, 2 small hooks and the "equalizer" if your car is like your avatar. There are several length cables, but I'd concentrate on the hooks first. All the repro places like Inline sell the hooks.

Well, it's a very common problem with these cars. Parts get changed or go missing. A 4 dr uses a different cable, a TH400 different hooks, stuff like that. You need to figure out what you have and what's missing. Here's a complete cable hrdwre set for Chevelle. Don't buy this....I'm just tossing it up here so you can see the sum of parts needed.
