t-case e brake help

hey guys, i swapped my 80 to a 5 speed with dual cases using a front range crossmember. now i need an e brake. is there any t-case brake i can use with this crossmember?

i cant the other crossmembers on the market due to the fact that the 5 speed pushed everything too far back for the factory mounting locations.

I would suggest welding some angle steel on the side of your frame rails and repositioning the crossmember. This would allow you to run another xmember which is compatible with a tcase style ebrake.

There is a t-case e-brake kit you can buy that works better than the rear brake version. The kit uses your stock e-brake handle.
