Default Ape Cable kits.

does anyone know of any cable kits for an 87 Softail. I'm adding 14" custom Apes and have upgraded the controls to 96-06 style. I have found the kits from L.A. Choppers and Burly but will they work with my older style front brake or clutch set up? I have an S&S carb set up on the bike as well I was looking for the easy way out rather than having to measure them all out.
Thanks in advance for any help

I got the LA Choppers kit. I emailed them to make sure about fitment, and they were very helpful.
