What cables are you replacing? The shifter and throttle or the steering?  |
That’s what I thought, about an hour or two. The mechanic mentioned something about cutting, I explained the rod box but I don’t think he understood. Fair enough that he quoted a bit high without seeing it first. I’m going to do it myself.
