E-brake extenders

kubtastic, thanks.
1. i was hoping there was a driver side cable from other application that was just a bit longer, instead of way longer, so that routing wasn't such a pain and therefore more cable to get snagged on something as well
2. so you're saying the stock length passenger side will not bind even after several inches of lift under extreme flex? i would think it needs to be longer as well

Routing is not a pain. It's easy. Zip ties and 2 minutes on your back and you're done. Plus, it's even BETTER than the original route that went directly from the rail to the drum. Now, it stays high and follows your passenger side cable to the diff, and then along the TOP of the tube.

Yes I am

Rethink it after examining how an axle flexes. As one side goes down, the other goes up. In the middle, the diff is almost in the same place as it was before flexing. So, under EXTREME flex, if your cables can reach the middle just fine, they reach the ends just fine. For height, also examine that there's a good FOOT of leeway before that cable might not reach the diff. 6" of lift barely changes the cable's path.

Sweet, thanks everyone then! Sometimes I can beat a topic to death, but I just like to understand everything myself and not just go on opinions! Thanks again

Are you refering to the actual cable. Go to your local auto part store and get a set of YJ passanger lines.

What about the driver's side is it longer or shorter, by how much?
