Dilemma 64 Sub 4x4

Hi Guys
I am in the process of upgrading my 64 4x4 suburban to 3/4 axles (done) hydro boost and power steering (thanks Captain Fab) 350 TBI, Ron Francis Harness, and You all now there is lots more......
So here is my question or dilemma.. my e brake cables are toooooo short (story of my life) hahaha.
Seriously I tried inlinetube and they are telling me they are not making custom brake cables anymore as of June 2014.

Any suggestions? relocate equalizer ? weld on extension ? any other custome cable company?

What! Well I screwed up then. I've procrastinated sending them mine to make. Damn it Michael!

Re: Dilemma 64 Sub 4x4

Ebrake cables are usually 3 cables or more. Got any pics of what is short?
Did the axle swap create the shortage?
Maybe one or more cables from a later burb?
