Dodge97,
Call IHOnlyNorth and talk to Jeff. I order my parts from him all the time without issue.
Just an FYI, my front cable was shot in that it would engage but disengage. I had to stop using my parking brake until I replaced it. My front section was shot but the rear section was a bit streached.
So I would suggest replacing bith the front and rear sections.
Just in case you are not aware, there is a cable from the pedal, to a looped cable connected to the wheels. IE 2 total cables.
Hope this helps.
