Default E Brake Bracket Relocation

Anybody relocate their emergency brake cable bracket and have a picture that they could post. I have the old one off but am not sure where to put it back. It appears it could chafe the brake hose if not done properly.
Thanks for the help.

Here's what they do for offset T/A's. I know this is not what your looking for but It may give you an idea.

Thanks for the pic, for those who have done this mod but don't have a pic, is that the route for the cable? Under and around the front of the trailing arm?

Run your brake cable on the inside of your TA and attach to your emergency brake. Then place the cable in the best location against the inside of your TA and mark where you want to weld your guide. Usually at the top edge of the TA
