I ran my cable through the floor at the original location and over to the passenger frame rail then to the rear diff using Lokar cables on the pickup. For my panel I drilled a hole in the toe board just before the firewall goes vertical and attached it all on the drivers side frame rail again I used the Lokar cables...

Thanks John. I'll route the e-brake cable through the firewall. If my speedo cable is long enough, I'll route it thru the trans cover, I think.
