Default parking/emergency brake cables

Hello, I did a rear axle swap on my 97 C1500. the old axle had 10 inch drums and replacement axle has 11inch drums. i found out that the brake cables will not work. My question do you know how I can order the correct cables? its a extended cab short bed.

Is the length wrong now or something else? Rockauto has several different options available - maybe measure your old one and go from there
