Dana 44 swap, ARB cover, parking brake cable bracket won't fit
I have a 99 XJ, I installed a Dana 44 out of a 87-88 XJ that I had built up. I got all the right park brake cables etc.
One problem I have is that the little bracket off my C8.25 to hold the RH park brake cable as it goes across the axle, won't fit the ARB cover because the holes are recessed.
Right now I have it zip tied to the brake hard line...
Anyone figure out a replacement fastener or spacer to allow the park brake cable bracket to work with the ARB cover?

yeah but I'd need to use a very thin spacer/sleeve and I'm not sure how well it would take the torque of the bolt. (Not crazy about tightening a bolt on the bracket with the recessed hole below it without a spacer.)
I just figured someone had been through this before.
