    Anyone out there know where to look for new cables? This cable is on my 3800. It's 54 inches from end of adjustment shaft to the drum. I found them for the 1/2 tons but I don't have any idea if they are the same or not:confused: My parts book doesn't identify the cable part number.

    I do have a second option. I have another tranny with the brake on the prop. shaft but I haven't found the attaching yoke yet.

    i know on my 3/4 ton all i had to do was purchase a little longer connecting rod, and that was it. Maybe its the same for the 1 ton, just a little longer yet

    Connecting Rod

    Yea, I did see the 3/4 and 1/2 ton cables are the same except for the connecting rod on the 3/4. The 1 ton doesn't use the connecting rod so I'm guessing they are different:confused:.

    Looks like the right one?

    Mike,
    I believe it is! Holes are not on center though. 2 1/2 on the short side, 2 3/4 on the long side. Tell me more.
