Reply to "Parking Brake cables - question"

The longer one is to the right as the wheel is more to the left (just crawled  under the car - Brake booster replace and bleeding).

On the loop, well when the original Peugeot Brake calipers where still in place I had more issue with the clearance to the half shafts as the Peugeot require a pretty long loop to feed the 90 deg fixtures (from forward). I used the fixture under the gear box to "alight" the cables there then loop it between halfshaft and lower control  - on the inner side towards the gear box not between Shock and rim!. Again you have to play with them a bit to minimize the "loop" and same time so that cable is "max" straight. 

 With Wilwood handbrake is easier as the fixtures it straight forward, so here now cable goes between rim and shock.
I think non is critical in respect of brake performance more to get max space from the exhaust and half shafts!
