Is there an obvious trick to creating more slack to reconnect the brake cables at the junction along the frame rail? I put in new rear cables to each drum before swapping the new axle in, and the self adjusters are spun down to their narrowest adjustment. But I'm a good way (1"?) from being able to connect the rear cable assembly (circled red in the photo below) up to the bracket ahead of it.
