1974 Camaro with 1980 Trans Am Rear End
 
I got a 1974 camaro and we put in a 1980 trans am rear end which has disc brakes. The problem that I have now is that the parking brake cables now do not reach. Can someone tell me what to use to make this work?

Which cables are you trying to use, your original ones, or the ones from the T/A rearend?

I only have the trans am cables which are the ones im using. I already threw away the other rear end as well as the cables because I didnt think i would use them plus I didnt think they would work since those where drum brakes and this one is disc brakes.

Can you take a picture of the brake cables as they are now? Might be able to fab up a piece to adapt from the Camaro e brake to the T/A e brake if we can see the distance and relationship to each other.
