Anyone know if 4th gen brake cables will bolt up to a 87 IROC rear?...

I have a 91 RS but I bolted on a Borg Warner rear end off from a 87 IROC. I cant find a the parking brake cable for my car. Does anyone know if a parking brake cable from a 93 Z will bolt onto my BW? Thanks.

The 4th gen cables are a little different. You can modify them to work. I did when I installed my Strange 12 bolt. A little work with a die grinder on the armored cable and your in like flint.

I ordered both of my rear e-brake cables from carparts.com , they were made by Raybestos, and I think were about $20 each.
