Short Parking brake cable

Okay, so the parking brake cable that goes from the pedal in the cab to the mount on the frame is about 6 inches short of reaching the mount. I believe it's because of the differences between the '80 cab and 81 frame. Anyway, has anybody else ran into this before? If so, how'd you fix it? I think the 81 may have just had a longer cable than the 80, but I can't find lengths anywhere.

Re: Short Parking brake cable

It wouldn't really matter if it was too long though, would it?
