Default tailgate cable

Hi folks,

I need to replace the tailgate cables on my 93 Ram W250 because one is missing. I can't find any online for the 1st gen. Does anyone know which one I can buy that will be the same length as the 93 Ram?

Thanks,
Mahendra

Sorry, I meant the steel arms are currently on my truck (well one at least) and I want to replace them with the cables. The links above have the 93 Dakota and 94-02 Ram. I can't find one for the 93.

If the cables aren't available, anyone have a link to the steal arms?

thanks,
Mahendra
