misplaced the old parking brake cables off my 7.5 during the swap for my 8.8. I cant see anywhere in the tech articles if it says they can or need to be reused in the 8.8 or do i need to get cables for whatever the 8.8 came out of? (in my case an explorer.) i need both right and left side. doing this today! so any help is appreciated..it is drum brakes. and a buddy has explorer cables he can me give if they will work.

I believe the Explorer cables are shorter (I know for sure they are on the disc axles).
 
On a drum 8.8, your 7.5 cables will plug right in.
 
Said he lost his 7.5" cables.

I'd look for another set of Ranger cables at a salvage yard
