parking brake?

hey guys I just installed all new parking brake cables and now there is
not enough slack in the drum to reinstall the shoes I think the Intermediate Cable is to short its about 52" long if someone can tell me how far it is
from the equalizer to the rear frame mounting bracket with the brake released
I will jump with joy.

From rear of equalizer (at rear wheel well) to front of front frame bracket where cable stop is secured (under front fender) is 71 3/4". 95 S/C 5.0L AODE in the drive in park, no emergency brake applied.

Sorry, missed 133 " wb - my Super cab is 139" WB so above numbers are no good for your case. Brackets probably not the same place, either.
