Transmission Cable

[Daddy's Big Truck]

I am trying to find a cable that connects from throttle area to transmission. Guy at the garage called it a "detent cable". Can't find it by this name anywhere. Could it be called anything else?

"Detent cable", is the correct name for it, but alot of people call it a "kick down" cable.

Hard to find! Dealership is pretty proud of these as well. Still looking.

Throttle Cables

All Lokar Throttle Cables are available in either stainless steel braided housing or black housing. They are designed with a specially extruded liner for extended life of the cable – not to be confused with ordinary braided brake hose. Cables are equipped with aluminum fittings and aluminum ferrules to eliminate fraying. “U-Cut-to-Fit” outer housing is available in 24" or 36" lengths with a “U-Cut-to-Fit” stainless inner wire. Clevis is designed without cotter pins or set screws. Adapts to factory and aftermarket pedals. Custom lengths available upon request. Cables mount nicely with Lokar’s Stainless Steel Carburetor Bracket and Return Springs (sold separately). Kits complete with installation instructions.
