e-brake help

Swapped from an 87 GTA 10-bolt drum to an 89 9-bolt disc PBR.
How do I get the e-brake lines connected and working properly?

You need first design e-brake cables for a '88-90 car, bolt in installation. LMK if you need any help.

So the stock 89 PBR cables will work?

Re: e-brake help

I went and bought the 89 front to back cable, meaning the line from the hand brake in the column and it should work fine.
I have the 89 e-brake lines for the calipers, just doesnt work with the 87 front cable.
Thanks Ed
