Got a cheap wheel fitment tool from amazon, cheapest one 37$. Sturdy and thicker gauge than you'd think for so cheap, no measurements on it, but thats fine. Didnt have a lug nut to hold it on so made due. Should be fine with 13" rim mabye 8 or 8.5 offset.

Found a few pics of the cable mount on the dana housing gonna copy that, also found a shot of the e brake mounting above the exhaust bracket. Didnt realize that was what went there
