rear emergency cable - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone have a source for these cables for a 72 GMC 1/2 ton 4X4? I have found them at local parts stores but they are not they same as originals(shorter and not as heavy duty). I fear they will not last or may break if axle is over extended. I also have found that it apparently makes a difference what trans you have. I assume this is to accomadate longer tailshaft clearance. Which makes me wonder what would be the application to use for a converted 700r4, as opposed to the 350 or 400 trans.

Any help greatly appreciated.
