That one is off an Alpha equiped drive. Don't know if they are the same as a Bravo bracket.

The lower cables are the same length I believe, the upper cable should be stamped at the ends with the length. If you have to go from scratch it is better to be too long than too short, you don't want to bend the cable too much or it will bind.
