8. The cable is the next piece that you are looking

for. Notice that both ends are the same. We did

that so that you could be right the first time. You

will need to take the small nut and the rubber

boots off so that you can get one large nut and

washer off. Put the cable through the column

bracket from the bottom side and reinstall the

large nut, washer and boots. Try to center the

nuts and washers on the available threads. This is important later.

9. Push the cable down through its outer cover so that it will be as short

as possible. Put the column in Park. Now, figure out where you

want the bracket to be, 5 o’clock will probably be a good place. Install

the swivel on the small thread and turn it until it is centered on the

thread. Now, install the small nut and turn it until

it bottoms out on the swivel. Do not tighten yet.

10. Rotate the bracket until the swivel drops into the

5/16” single hole 2” from the center of the main

shaft. If the bracket hits something or is in a bad

place, you can use another set of holes in the

horseshoe bracket, move the swivel up or down

its thread length, or move the cable on its length

of threads. Always remember that the cable that

moves must be pushed in all the way. Tighten the

bracket onto the tube.

11. Route the cable towards the front of the transmission. You may have

to bend it into a circle to take up the slack. Stay away from exhaust

pipes. If this cable gets too close, it will melt and not work.
