Throttle cable replacement

Post by krines »

After searching it appears the Mcfarland cable with adapter to keep my original door knob is the way to go. Any other experience. Appears to be expensive.

David,
I also wanted to keep the door knob, it actually was easy as the knob fit the new cable required for the conversion.
