Guys, I'm running 4-link rear from a 93 Fox body. I've swapped out the 4-lug with 5-lug disk from Forte's. I've also bought some aftermarket eBrake cables hoping they'd fit but they do not.

For those of you who went with Forte's 5-lug conversion : what ebrake cables did you use? Looking for a product/model & vendor. Ignore the fact in this photo that the cable is entering from the wrong direction.

I have Forte's 11.65" rear brakes. I bought 1994 mustang cables from Napa, a left and a right (one is slightly longer I think). The end of the cable with the smooth fitting goes into the caliper, and the end with the barbs/tangs on it goes into the frame. Kinda looks like the end fitting in your picture is the barbed end (maybe both ends of the cable you bought have barbs?).

Give Mike a call and ask what he recommends. Has always worked for me.
