Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Accelerator Cable

[DVolk]

Were can a person find a accelerator cable ?
I see postings about recalls on the 94 to 96 trucks .

Does this mean that if you need a cable your screwed ?

Help , im doing a conversion and the V10 one don't look correct .

I would think you need to use the cable that is correct for your engine. The cable for the truck you have is correct for that model diesel engine. If the throttle pedal/lever is different enough from the original truck the engine came out of it may not work. You may have to have one made. There's a place here in Nashville that makes custom cables primarily for motorcycles that can normally take your original cable and the cable for your truck and make one to work. I'm sure there are other places like this across the country.

I used the 12V cable correct for my engine in my '98.5 but the throttle pedal/lever were basically the same between my '95 and the '98.5.

The oem cable available now is the same as the one in the recall pkg.If you have trouble sourcing one I think I still have a couple.

So i'm thinking for this ,98 id need a early 98 down cable
