Parking brake cable lifted k20

I've got a 72 k20 with ho52 rear and 4" lift springs. My parking brake cables are short, if I put then into the frame mounts they rub on the leaf springs bad.

What do you guys do for parking brake cables on lifted trucks? Are there any available longer cables? Thanks in advance

Lowering the mount on the frame is about your only option. Unless you have someone make you longer cables. Broadway splicing here in spokane maybe able to make you some.

I asked the guys at In-line tube and they made a SS brake cable to the length I specified. They have several options for the barrell end as well. USA manufacturer, made here. Bruce
