Didnt make much progress, but some was made. I was able to remove the crimped end of the Dorman brand e-brake cable. It wasnt super difficult to remove. Only thing left to do to finish the ebrake cables is to trim it to the correct length, reinstall the cable end, and braze a new fitting on the end of the cable and make a ebrake cable holder that bolts to the axle bracket.
