I/O to O/B

Well, I'm now an Allison Owner! Got me a 1997 XB03 with a 225 SuperMag. A lot of driving and a strip search (looking for my "money belt") going down across the US Border, but these are the small prices you pay.
The boat has sat for 2 years and the steering cables are seized. I know a hydraulic system would be preferred; got a dual ram system on my I/O. But, can't afford that right now. The cables are "heavy duty ride-guide", and I don't think they're made any longer. Any suggestions on replacements? Aren't the cable lengths supposed to be stamped on the cable somewhere? The Hot Foot cable is also broke - I assume that can be ordered as a standalone part and then cut to size? Thanks in advance - gonna b looking to be propped up by you guys as I try to get this baby back up the pad!
