Gear Shift Indicator Cable Question

Discussion in 'General Motoring' started by FifthAvenue91, Sep 12, 2004.

  1. The cable broke on my 1991 Chrysler New Yorker Gear Shift inidcator.
    Haven't been able to find a new one via after market - does anyone
    have any idea what one will cost from a dealer, or if there is a good
    aftermarked cable out there?

  2. There is no aftermarket cable. The way to find out what it will cost from
    the dealer is to call and ask. Good used ones can also be found by the
    thousands in wrecking yards.

    Not sure if this applies to the 1991 New Yorker you have, but after
    looking at a bunch of CC vans in the boneyard (and mine as well) I note
    that the "cable" is nothing more than a piece of nylon-fiber type of
    "string" that I have seen in fishing shops. Cheap. The K-cars have the
    same "cable" too.

    But then check with your dealer as to their price. Sometimes the CC price
    is worth the PITA factor of crafting a replacement yourself...
