I think there was even two different types in 1970?  I faintly remember MoparDave telling about each of them.  Maybe he'll chime in.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

70 used a 3 cable system ,short left cable from the wheel & a longer right cable that came across the diff to the left side where it connected to the front cable attached to the pedal
71 used a 4 cable system with the same lenght cable from each wheel , an intermediate cable loopd in a u from each wheel cable to under the trans mount & a front cable from the pedal to the intermediate cable

comes down to equal length rears with an intermediate that is a 4 cable system that has a single mounting eyelet on each rail, or the unequal that is a 3 cable system that has a single bracket with 2 holes on the inside of the left rear rail. if you need cable we are set up with inline tube.
