Hi Mark,
You must be getting close on that truck.
I presume your talking about the cables from each rear wheel, going up to
the stock
actuating mechanism on each side. I used garage door hardware from my local
Dixieline hardware store. Use the tiny horse shoe shaped guides and a tiny "U"
clamp and your done. This has been working on my truck for well over a couple
years now.
I have a photo or two someplace, but I would have to look for it :)
